We've seen that 4-part Boston Garter here a couple times. I hope that doesn't mean Bruce is getting out of the hobby.
And, if I recall the story correctly, Mr. Mint did not "discover" that item. A teacher walked the item into a show, and Rosen was one of the people who made an offer it. Rosen ended up with it, then flipped it for a quick profit but nowhere near its true value. (Maybe someone who's better with the archive can find the original version. I poked around for a while and couldn't come up with it.)
