I finally decided to get another capsule toy, and this one interested me because I'd recently finished reading Dan Brown's "Inferno." I'd heard from a few people that Dan is a lousy writer, and I pretty much have to agree. "Inferno" was a slog, and I kept mentally editing all the places where I felt the writing needed fixing. However, there's a significant section of the book that's dedicated to the Black Plague, and it is partly set in Venice. These masks are mentioned a few times in the book.
I really only wanted the full white mask, and the death masks are at the bottom of the list. Naturally, I got the black death mask. It is well-made, anyway.
Sigh.
