barrysloateRob loves to talk about the hobby. He always returns phone calls and he always gushes with enthusiasm.
One of the stories I like to tell about Rob is during the year I worked at Sotheby's with him cataloguing the Halper collection he would be tugged in six different directions on a daily basis with an endless string of questions, as most of the cataloguers had never seen much of the material before. In that entire year I never saw Rob lose his temper once or even get the least bit testy. I never understood how he kept so even keeled under all the daily stress of coordinating that sale.
