My name is Karen. I am Al's daughter. I want to thank everyone for their kind words thus far, that really means a lot. Through my entire life my parents always collected....something. From the time I was very small, I was always reminded of what to look for (and later ask for) at garage sales, resale shops, flea markets, etc.. I'm glad for him that he found a group of folks like you that shared his interest.

Thank you again for your thoughts.
