Hi Folks,

I have a new exclusive Riker box display available and I only have a
limited quantity of them.

Shortly before midnight, on October 9, 1992, a brilliant fireball lit
up the night sky over New York State. It caused a major sensation as
countless witnesses saw the fragmenting fireball and several of them
caught the event on film.

Meanwhile, at 207 Wells Street, in Peekskill NY, seventeen year old
Michele Knapp was startled to hear a loud crash and twisting metal.
The crash was a 12+ kilogram H6 chondrite striking and penetrating the
rear of her red 1980 Chevy Malibu that was parked in the driveway!
The meteorite caused considerable damage and the car was later
purchased by meteorite collectors, yielding a healthy profit for the
young Ms. Knapp.

Peekskill is a classic American hammer meteorite and is quite rare on
the market. I managed to acquire some small cutting fragments and I
have made these into attractive display specimens.
