Thoughts
on the hobby: It's still in it's infancy.
Most
memorable hobby moment:
15
years ago, clinging
to the back of an Amtrak train
that
started to leave without
me
while on the way to a show...finally
stopped
and let me on.
Philosophy
on where to find stuff: There's no
set
place, you find it where you find it. Turn over
every
rock. Watch all the auctions, read
all
the journals..go to every kind of antique
event..from
the junkiest flea markets
to
the toniest antiques shows...and
everything
in between. Be active!
