D. BernhardtWas trying to order my favourite Raphael brushes today only to discover they are no longer made. ... I loved those things. Sure I've seen them come and go (your favourite series) even before the days of computers, but this one really ticks me. Tomorrow I'll have to go on a hunt (starting with Glawson and Evans) and get a dozen or so of the ones I can't live without!

D. BernhardtI've asked Rick G. for brushes that are out of manufacture and he's found them as surplus on someone's shelf for me. Hope you get your Raphaels.
Well....have got the story straight now. The boss called the other day after seeing this post and set me straight. The brushes are still manufactured but distributed by 1shot who want out of the brush business. Ordered a half dozen anyway and before summer is out will make sure I have at least a dozen of each of my favourite sizes in reserve. Sooner or later the day will come and I've used these for the last 15 or years. Just never been able to get used to any others.
