He (and his actual builder Peter Hare) made a lot of frames when things were quiet and hung them up in a room above the shop. People would go and order a frame, and if there was one anything like it upstairs they would paint it and pretend it was custom. Nicely built frames, but the man himself was a dreadful bullshitter.
