      Been busy today & just scanning CW for your Lindy collection (well, did get sidetracked a few times). I'm not a fanatic on Lindy stuff, but being in the business, of course I love your collection. Why did you wait so long to share it? Great collection!

      You reminded me when you started talking about the planes. I have most of the newspapers from the kidnapping trial also. This is a great way more me to organize my stuff, since I have so much that I forgot about.

      You forgot about a lot of interesting material then.

      You should see how much stuff I have!

      I work with several museums here but find that things you think are interesting are often sent to the cellars. I know the curators in the French & Dutch musee's here & don't donate anything they don't tell me they will display anymore. I took one of my blunderbusses down & offered to loan it to them for display. The woman curator showed hardly any interest. Meanwhile, 4 or 5 tourists came in & started asking questions & admiring it while I was just showing it to her. Asking her some questions, I find out that she was only 3 yrs old when WWII ended but had a mental block about any guns, even if they were 280 yrs old! You have to watch for this sort of mental hang-ups that deprive others of the enjoyment of viewing things. Not right, but they have their mental prejudices like everybody.

      I posted this in your other post too:

      I always got giddy at work, thinking that Spirit of Saint Louis was build there... :) (check out the second paragraph under "did you know")

      Blunder, As you can see, I collect what I like. I do not care if it isn't worth a dime. You reminded me about the gun on my mantel. I paid a lot for it. It is a an older reproduction of a Tennessee long rifle but the grain in the wood and the workmanship is amazing! I hope that I can get some good photos. By the way, I would probably get a lot of enjoyment rummaging through the basement of any museum!

      DrFluffy, Thanks for the wonderful link! I always enjoy reading about Lindy!

      Thanks DrFluffy. That was really interesting & my almost petrified brain may even retain it. Fascinating may be a better word. He was the 1st to cross "solo" only though.
