Imagine some character named Nininger? Though you're right - that's why he
was so successful! Btw, the loaf of bread was $0.07. And a car cost $450,
$60 less than a house in the Nininger golden age (e.g. Pasamonte, NM era -
1933).

Nininger paid $1 per pound for space rocks. That's less than a quarter of a
US cent per gram "wholesale". And who's complaining that the naughty
dealers like Ward turned around and sold them so "cheaply" at 5 cents to
$1.00 a gram, tsk, tsk...

Good health,
Doug
PS, Matt, 1965? for how much did H.H. sell his collection to Arizona in
1960?
