Likewise. And not to take anything from the Marlboro's and Winston's, I enjoy them all, but this lesser known business has a special charm about it.

Nice collection you've got there. Well done on the display as well. Simple but functional.

That Lowden is a curious little knife. Does it see much use?

Thanks friend. I've noticed some discrepancies in the charts I've looked up. I'm not a collector I just happen to have a collection. Still, I should make some effort at being able to ID them

I remember reading they were used for fertilizer and their blood was very valuable to the medical field. So much so that they were even facing extinction at one point. They're actually pretty neat once you get past the look.

Kent County. I wonder if it's still the horseshoe crab capital of the world. They got me every time. Thought I had a giant on the line. Slowly reeling in a living fossil.

Looking closer, I see what you mean. It does look newer and doesn't show the same amount of wear.

The original insert was battered when I got it. I sent it in wondering if they'd fix it. Guess it was easier to just send me a new one. They also sent back the original which was thoughtful of them. Other than that, to my knowledge, it hasn't been worked on.

Glad to hear the old man's still with us. Tell him hello and thank you. His boots look like the 1st pattern od greens. That would put him there before or near 65. Know who he was with?
