I always thought it odd that the way Henry Lymans initial were engraved didn't appear to be of very high quality. Any comments on that?

Shelly Gitman was a very private person regarding his Parkers. Those who knew that he owned the two Invincibles and how he got them agreed in their own minds to keep his story under wraps until his death. Shelly never asked anyone to keep quiet, but he only shared his secrets with those he trusted to be gentlemen. He must have been a good judge of character, because none of this information made it into print until today. Now that Shelly is gone, someone may tell his story and the stories of the Invincibles.
