The year 2000 Graham finished open cutting the old lease where they first discovered the rare and unique and valuable exotic pattern the harlequin . Which is a very uniform pattern and is extremely sought after by many of his customers around the world, and as he was the last man to work with the men who found and owned the lease where the Halley’s Comet was found.
