ANASTASIADIS, ZAHOPOULOS, ARVANITIS, VAN GOGH?

Here’s a bit of news to break up the monotony of the three top stories plaguing the Greek media.
A sketchbook said to have belonged to Vincent Van Gogh has surfaced in Greece.

Reuters reports:
Taken by a Greek resistance fighter from a Nazi train, the sketchbook was discovered in storage boxes by his daughter, who is seeking to establish its authenticity with the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.

Interesting story on how this find made it's way to Greece. At an estimated worth of €4 million, this is quite a find...but so was the €5 million in Themos' bank account.
