I think he confirmed on the podcast he did with board member Jay that he owns the strip.

I am relatively new to the T206, and really appreciated this podcast. Tremendous educational opportunity. Thank you for posting.

Thank You James. Keith mentioned one of the things about the strip that I have read but I have not able to confirm. He said that Alan Rosen had it and was trying to sell it in the mid 80's if that is accurate he must have been trying to sell it for Barry Halper at that time.

If memory serves, I believe Rosen listed it in a full page ad in SCD

Thanks Jay, it would be great to see the ad if someone has it. I found ads where it sold in 1999 and 2010.
