Ariel, that book is a good book, indeed.
I have it already: very good. Dr. Figiel was from Detroit. I am only sorry I got smart (smarter?) too late to meet him.

Ariel

The buyer states (The majority of purchases were made in the 1960's-80's) that does not mean everything he sells was collected 30 years ago. He sometimes has some nice things for sale but he over embelishes his descriptions on certain items and has no clue to their real market value.
