Gordon and Muriel Wright are asking for help from the community to try and locate someone… Here’s their request:
We have a superb work of art which Muriel saw and purchased when picking up a key to a Jewish Community Hall from a Jewish gentleman in the mid 1960’s who lived in Kelvin Road, Remuera.
This person died shortly after that and since this was his first and only completed work it is felt that it should be returned to his family.
Our difficulty now is that the work is unsigned and we cannot recall his name.
We have only the following: He was a retired engineer and he had a key to a Jewish Community Hall in Remuera which was to be used for a Cluny Bridge Tournament.
Some years later his nephew (name not recalled) called at our home, which was then in Kerikeri, to look at the item we had so that he could complete the only other work which was based on that which Muriel had purchased.
With only these meagre clues we hope someone in the community can provide some direction. Thank you in anticipation.
Please contact Gordon at ritegm2020@gmail.com if you think you might have some useful information for him.
