Hi AL and All,

great reading, AL, many thanks!

After reading your Nininger text, I remembered that I once bought a
20.6 g end piece of Bondoc.
I even has a small number, painted with white ink (by H.H.
Nininger?): (2)684.255
In the Catalog of Meteorites in the Coll. of ASU (Arizona State
University)
I found 550 kilos mentioned, the catalog number is 684...
The base of the ASU Meteorite Coll. is the Nininger Collection,
purchased in 1965.

Further infos most welcome!

Peter
