I also caught that on the other board. Did you happen to read the other half of the story...from the dealer who sold it?

A great story!

Fantastic story. Stories like this I seldom read due to my age and medical situation. Just afraid of there may not be a tomorrow so I usually avoid the subject but that was a great story. Makes me wonder where my stuff will end up. No one to leave it to.

That was a GREAT Story! It sure does put a different light on things when you think of what that collection really represents.

Wonderful story--and just carl, I'd like to suggest you consider bequeathing your collection to a charity or organization that does work about which you care deeply. Just a thought.
