I own Diego Rivera's carved and monogrammed walking stick.

Interesting! How did you happen to get it?

[@kirbywaite1586]

@cydkriletich6538 I inherited it from.a very elderly and now long gone friend. It was left in his house when Rivera was a guest. He had to flee back to Mexico to avoid arrest following an altercation at a party. This happened in the 1930s.
