A couple of weeks ago Bob put up 2 Mantle hardcover books, 1 Mantle softcover and 3 other nice publications on the B/S/T Board. He was asking $15.00 for them all plus $15.00 in shipping. I was really interested in the three MICK books, so I told him he could probably mail them for ~$5.00 via Media Mail. If he could I would give him $20.00 for the books. He told me he would inquire at his local post office.

Move forward to yesterday and I receive a heavy box in the mail. I open it up and it's all six of the above publications. Not only did Bob send them to me for FREE, but he sent them via PRIORITY MAIL and paid almost $17.00 to do so! Thanks again Bob. May you receive back twice as much from someone else in the future.

STAY HEALTHY!

Doug

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    I know I havnt been around too long, but I think a nice gesture like this couldn't have happened to a nicer and more deserving person than Doug!
