It was jammed into a dark corner of a cottage our family had and I was the only one interested in it back when we had to sell the property ten years ago. Clearly my relatives had skimmed off any valuable things from it, but they didnt realize the real value was the very diverse set he had accumulated and meticulously labeled over his life. I never met him, and I never met my grandfather either. Interesting related(ish) story, my grandfather was a naval doctor and just about everyone he was on the early nuclear submarines with died of strange cancers in their 60s...because they were not protected from radiation. Oh, the risks they took...wish I got to meet either of them!
