A few months ago, one of my friends, a book dealer, called me. He wanted me to help him with his print fair for a day. I was all game for it immediately.
At the print fair, I sat on a table on one side of him. Next to me was seated his assistant.
As the prospective buyers walked by, I greeted them with a warm ‘hi’ to please them. But much to my chagrin, I noticed that, time and again, from the men I got an indifferent look and rarely a nod.
