During her childhood, Vera Timmons witnessed numerous acts of delinquency. One day she saw her little neighbor, Peter ?Freckles?, with a sarcastic smile, rip into pieces the teddy bear of her friend Katherine. The following week, the same Peter, armed with a slingshot, broke Mrs. Carrigan?s window. Another day, ?Freckles? stole a handful of candy by putting his filthy hands in Aunt Mary?s candy bowl. Even if Vera witnessed everything, everyone said that she was lying and accused her little sister as the author of the crime. Injustice, that is, the injustice of having said the truth and nobody believed her, is what led Vera Timmons to the study of law. The years passed and after a brilliant career at the university, Vera was proud to exercise the profession that she so much desired. The only thing that she will never be able to understand is how that horrible Peter ?Freckles? who eventually went into politics, could become senator.

During his studies, artist Guillermo Forchino discovered and mastered classic techniques and materials. He began creating figures made from wrapped bands of cloth where the visible parts(hands and head) were made from wax and papier mache colored with natural pigments. He subsequently chose poly resins to create figures that resemble the world of comic strip and cartoon characters. They are handled with finesse and given a soul and a story. Every single item is wrapped in the unique Forchino Newspaper with a special label attached, individually numbered and identified by a stamp on the bottom of each piece. A unique and numbered certificate of authenticity completes each package. When a suitable quantity of each item has been produced and sold, the item is retired to help keep its worth.
