The Ring

This is an exclusive for our site.  As many of you may know, the ring worn by Ben Cross in Dark Shadows was actioned off at the 1997 Dark Shadows festival charity auction.  The man who bought it was kind enough to send us a picture of it and some information -- thank you!  Here it is:

Details:  "As you know, I bought the ring at the DS Festivial charity aution last August for $2,000.  The band is not real gold, but the stone is really black onyx.  There is some damage to the little meal beads that surround the stone.  I can only assume that Ben Cross damaged the ring while wearing it as Barnabas."
