ADDING TO DAVID LANGE'S COLLECTION
Notes from anonymous sources:
Mr Webmaster - Would you kindly relay this message to Mr
David Lange. my uncle was a photoengraver for whitman
publications in racine wisconsin - when i closed out his estate
i found a box of wooden blocks undoubtedly he had brought
home from work - these hard wood blocks are all the same
thickness - 7/8 inch thick - but of different sizes - i believe
these were used to back zinc plates - mentioned in esylum
last week - i let my three kids play with them when they were
small pre school age - i would grade these wooden blocks
vg to vf - would you be interested in purchasing these for $25?Note To David Lange. My cousin wrote you about selling you
blocks from an uncle's estate. I own the maple tree grove
from which these blocks were made. Can I sell you one of
these trees for $250? I will cut it to any measure you wish.
But you will have to come pick it up in person or pay for
freight shipment because UPS will not accept such large
shipments. Please answer right away. We are infested with
a parasite that is attacking our trees. This offer won't last.Mr. Lange. My brother contacted you to sell one of his
trees. I have the original deed for the family farm where this
grove was located. I would sell this deed for $2,500.Whoever Is Buying the Deed For My Familys Farm. I
have for sale at $25,000 the house in which this deed
was signed.To Whom It May Concern. I am the governor of the
state where the family farm is located. I am for sale for
$250,000.Imagine! A governor, a house, a deed, a tree, a box of
blocks, for a zinc cut, to print a cover, to go on an album,
to hold coins. Wow! That's more than "Six Degrees of
Separation!"- 2003-07-27
