[Mccoypottery-talk] McCoy books

[Ann Clark]

Betty,  I want to go to the auction with you!  haha
 I am waiting on my daughter in law to send me a description of this McCoy
chip and dip set she has.  I have been surfing and looking at the auctions
for a while now...and have never seen it.

 I had just ordered some books for my son when I got the neat book site from
Jeanne. (My usual luck!)  but I a m delighted to have that website...as he
is so into collecting things.  In fact...he is 37 years old, married with
one daughter and is a Wildlife biologist.  Due to all this activities....he
has had knee surgery twice in the past year and he has been told...his days
of doing his dream job of being a hunting guide and training dogs, etc...are
about over....  so we are seriously talking about opening a shop of
somekind.  Antiques, etc.  He is really into railroad memorbilia...as well
as guns, etc, etc.  He said the only problem is I would take all the good
stuff home!

Ann in Texas
