Dark Humour Wax Seal
An exceptionally rare antique purple paste seal to mimic amethyst depicting a noose with puntastic motto ‘I’ll trouble you with a line’
Why we love it
The essence of dark humour!
The seal features imagery of a noose combined with the overarching motto ‘I’ll trouble you with a line’.
A clever and witty play on words, first referencing the letter that it seals and the lines of correspondence therein combined with, the not so hidden, lurking threat of a hanging! Comedy genius
