Every Time I See an Auto T206 --

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>Joe P.</b><p>I can't help but to Chuckle.<br />I can't help but automatically transport myself to 1990, and a little shop called Fantazia.<br /><br />Fantazia was DR Koos laboratory of fantastic creations.<br />His research was mainly into comic books and high ended baseball cards.<br />I was there to try to convince the likeable DR. Koos that it might be a good idea to return my money in exchange for his well done creation. (exhibit A)<br />-- A recommendation by my counselor, and Fantazia's advertiser SCD's - Bob Lemke.<br />He eventually saw the wisdom of the plan, but that's another story.<br /><br />While there, I obviously looked at the items in his display case.<br />One of the things that caught my eyes were a few auto T206's.<br /><br />Autographed T206's in DR.Koos Den of Creations???<br /><br />

Back when I was publisher of SCD, I threw Dupcek out as an advertiser. My recollection of his conduct, both personally and professionally, is strongly paralleled by this "Koos" character. <br /> <br /> Respond to this message <br /> <br />Response Title Author Date <br /> Re: Dr. Koos = Danny Dupcek?
