Bob MarquetteThanks for clearing that up. Jay. In retrospect John (England) probably never claimed he had every single Zeenut ever produced but that his Zeenut collection was "complete," meaning he couldn't find any more. In any event, his Zeenut collection was immense and beautiful. I talked to John a few weeks ago for the first time in 10 years. He doesn't have a single card any more, this from a guy whose collection was as complete and nice as anyone in the Mid-South. He now collects old records and loves old jazz recordings. Funny the way things work out. He did mention to me how much his collection would be worth today as opposed to how much he sold it for in the early 80's. I think we can all echo that sentiment...
