I followed the whole affair from the time Bo Whoop was "discovered/outed" by Jim Kelly, until it was bought at auction by the son of one of Nash's hunting partners, then donated to the DU museum. I was very pleased that it ended up where it did, and had secretly hoped that it would, and would not end up in some collector's dark closet never to be seen gain until said owner croaked.
