		<description><![CDATA[I received my first Stormy Kromer cap for Christmas this year and found another a week later in a 1923 hunting and fishing painting by William Harnden Foster. His oil on canvas "From Traps to Trout" depicts a woodsman spying a leaping trout as he sets a fresh trap. It sold Jan. 1-2, 2012 for $3,700 by Bobby Langston Antiques, Inc. against a $2,000 to $3,000 pre-auction estimate. <a href="http://www.antiquetrader.com/antiques/collectibles/yooper-finds-two-stormy-kromers-in-one-week" class="more">Read More &#43;</a>]]></description>
