He had placed an add in a magazine, I think Astronomy, titled. "Iron Meteorites, thumb sized, $3.00" Of course I bought one only to be surprised to find a chunk of meteorite iron oxide. I wrote him back and told him that this is not a true iron nickel meteorite but a highly terrestrialized one. He wrote me back, I may still have the letter, telling me that the differece is like water and ice... (a very bad analogy) Other than that experience from 1966 I have had no other contacts with him. I think that he corresponded with Nininger and Huss, and that he ran a very low key meteorite business in the days past when meteorites were not popular.
