Hello all-
I met with the seller today and handed him a whole bunch of money. It's
bittersweet to be sure and he did not show a great deal of emotion but does
extend his thanks. I have a list of who got what and he is happy to see so
many in list member's hands. Many of you have received specimens and you may
not a complete lack of specimen boxes. He has EVERY intention of filling
them all up again when this is said and done. His son is no better at this
point but a specialist is involved and the seller is optimistic.

Tomorrow we will resume in the evening around ~5pm Pacific
Wednesday ~8pm
Thursday ~8pm

Friday Saturday Sunday I am out of town

Monday ~noon

And we'll go from there
I plan to end this the weekend after the one upcoming....and those are days
you will want to save up for.

Today is a good day to catch up before listing some pieces on eBay tomorrow.

What doesn't sell today goes on eBay tomorrow


1) Our Stone Pelted Planet---by Ninniger. It was autographed by Ninninger in
1948 to a Mrs. J. F. Black. Overall it's in great shape with some foxing.
Pages and spine are tight. $250

2) The Smithsonian Series, Minerals From the Earth and Sky. 1944 The book is
NEW. Let me explain. Each year Brandeis University has a book sale,
(according to Guiness---it's the worlds largest) in the Chicagoland area. On
a table, I found three box sets of the Smithsonian Series. They were selling
them as singles, not the entire set. So, I picked up all of the #3's.This
one was still in the cardboard case, and appears that the case had never
been
opened, or the book thumbed through. $40
