Edgar it was in the "teaser" near the beginning. It looked like a pic of you and Martha when she was a child.

Good thing I got Edgars autograph before this, now he may start charging for it. Also have one of his guns and hand made cases, maybe should consider them as part of my retirement portfolio.

Only if you consider Bob Evans to be Fine Dining.

And shell-box collectors should note that in the opening frame of the "teaser" Edgar is taking his ammo out of a box marked (in classy Anglo-American lettering) SPENCER / HAND LOADED.

Reggie, That's a Leatherman. My son appropriated it. He did leave me the case.

Martha says at the end of the “teaser”, "It’s kind of cool to put yourself back in time and see the history through the things he grew up with”.

I have similar sentiments about my father and his things, without which I probably never would have known about the PGCA, let alone followed a path to it.

It’s patrimony that is measureless. Edgar is fortunate that Martha expresses it so well and does so publicly.
