Two More Greats Have Passed Away; Bob Coleman, a superb, senior collector and friend, beloved by all who knew him. Also, Vince Coniglia, author of the book on US M3 knives and collaborator with Bill Walters on his recent knive volumes. Vince was a solid collector and friend to all. Willi Schumacher, my friend and collecting colleague of 36 years has gone to join his wife Linda, who preceded him in death many years ago. He never had another love in this life-- except collecting and the friendships that brought. Willi's impact on the SS cloth collecting hobby will be forever remembered as positive and valuable. Willi was the 'real deal' and not some narcicist or interloper. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. RIP Willi.
Thanks to my friends and customers for making 2018 a great year so far! Best of luck and see you at Show of Shows 2019! Look for us at the SS-Steel Banner, where we will have many nice SS items. (Needless to say, the MAX was great. The best part is always the good times and collecting with all our friends!)
