Robert, great post. Hopefully you can be made solid on this mess one day shame you as a collector have been a victim of such bad stuff. Not to mention the threats about folks coming to "break your legs" correct?
Also those great photos that seemed to not add up from our good pal Mr. Nash.
Seems our white knight of hobby cleanup is rather dirty and like many of the trophy balls he once owned quite tarnished.
Cheers,
John
P.S. I’ll be on the lookout for the Henry Chadwick umbrella soon.
