Now that there was funny!

Edgar, don’t lose that sense of humor.

I’ve seen the down hill, but still need to find the rock.

This is not that one. That one is from 1926.

This is on a size 2 frame (instead of 1 1/2 frame).

It is my college graduation gift from my dad (in 1976).

My dad got it from a collector that lived in Fort Worth, Herman Gilbreath.

I knew I should have stayed in school while my dad was still alive, but I quit in my senior year to go to work for him. I may or may not have bought myself a Parker when I finally did graduate.
