Oh, Kenny,
I THINK I'm up to about 9 now. There's one in a box in one of the basements...to be sold. I also have about 9 69s, too. I'm also getting Michael Turner's 69. His 69 AND 70 AND his "Holiday" canister in my collection. How fortunate!!!!!

Now that I think about it..
As collectors most of us with large to medium collections have our own little museums. Wouldn't you say? Where did you get your degree from John?

Well, Kenny......................
"My" degrees are in: Theatre, Business Administration, and Education. I came close(2 courses) away from a degree in Philosophy.... but , didn't.
I spent a lot of time at The Hoover Historical Society. It's the accredited museum at Walsh University. I served as a docent there......... volunteering, cleaning, entertaining at Christmas celebrations. It was there that I was shown the correct way to document, display, etc as well as how to treat paper items, etc.
I also dated someone who got a degree at the famed Wintertur Museum in Delaware. From that relationship, I learned how to handle art, marble, etc. (There are very specific ways)
But my degrees are not in the field of museum studies. I'm just, at best, a pretty good collector. I know what I know, and, I know my limitations. Anything I don't know, I go to the experts to find out.

off topic, for a second, but................ same idea
When I opened the 'studio' in the Philly area, I had to be careful about the name. I owned the rights to a 'fictitious name", now that the original owner died, but, I used her name on the school. When I finally closed it, canceled everything, and opened my own school, I added: dance, music, piano, voice, drama, gymnastics, printwork, etc. I was able to have it at "Conservatory" status. If I weren't careful, in the performing arts world, I would have been laughed out of Philadelphia! Because, I was up against the 'big guns'.I earned a stellar reputation in that town.
One must be careful about the "legalities" about certain things.

Adore your pictures, John!
One question, though. Do you still have that Hoover electric razor from the UK that I brought you once?

Still???
Of course I do! It's a great, thoughtful gift. The only other time I saw one was at Tom's. To be clear, Anderson.

John,
How many times have you visited North Canton? What is the official color of the model 70? It's not just blue is it?

In 2018 the VCCC annual convention was held in Spokane Washington. Marc had the same JC Penney cleaner in his shop and I purchased it from him. Remember what a fun time we had John?

Oh look: My buddy Greg, my buddy Mike, my buddy Luke, my buddy Rob S., Wow. So many of those people are my friends.
of course, no table is complete w/o proper attire.
And a nice, festive centerpiece
I think Martha, and, maybe even Jackie would be pleased.

John,
