wirt gammon
When I got back into collecting in the mid 1970s, Wirt Gammon was writing a column for SCD. John Stommen, the publisher, said Gammon insisted on being paid for his work. It didn't amount to much money, but he was a writer and he wanted to be treated as one. He struck me as being an unpretentious guy, as were most of the pioneer collectors. Part of his column was entitled, "Can Anybody Help?" This was his was of giving free space to collectors who wrote to him with questions or particular needs. I believe Gammon was an early T206 Wagner owner.
