Part of what makes the scam so clever is that they’re not pushing hard to sell the phonautogram, rather it’s Bea who’s being lured into making the first move.
What a sorry sight! Old-fashioned belle Bea is privileged by wealth and accustomed to having her way, and she is practically overcome with the vapors at the thought of possessing the Lincoln phonautogram! What a sucker she is, an ideal mark for a con, only too eager to be taken for a ton of loot! And how skillfully “Femstock” has set the hook! Reel her in and make the score!
Maybe, when she recovers her composure after shelling out Big Time for the fake artifact, she’ll share the “good news” with Honeymoon and thus set the wheels of Justice (Tracy) in motion….

She doesn’t like the smoke, but she is too interested in getting this ‘treasure’ for herself to mention it.

Good Morning, Bill!
I’ve seen collectors fall for this type of ploy. Myself included. I’m just hoping Tracy et al will put a stop to this before the check clears.

To write an ode to foolishness
Of how it leads to simple bliss
The joy of believing with one’s heart
Allowing facts to spoil and rot
Content to leave the truth behind
A symptom of a mouse that’s blind
An honest life can be so bland
Soaring dreams with my head in the sand

What costs would she have incurred at this point?

Well, we can see her fortune go up in smoke for she can’t see how unlikely this is, cause smoke gets in her eyes

Does anyone know the date of the Mole’s return under Staton and Curtis? I know that he had returned several times under different writers.
