I'd (eventually) like to see the one I originated, for all the travels it's had, in the past 5 years.
It is still a means to remain connected, despite the vagaries of corporate intrigue, and loss, recently. |

Has one of the volumes made it to Japan, yet? Needs more world travel! One of those travel gnomes included would be clever, don'cha think? |

Location: Cicero, NY | The one that I sent on is (I believe) the one that Miles is repairing (a corner of the box took a small hit somewhere before it came my way). No idea where the other one is. |

That is the one that passed through my home, as well as Brazil and Europe.
I am not sure if that one had been Down-Under or not.

Send it over here, then we can circulate it and send it back. |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | I have one. I wanted to bring it to NAMM (yeah I've had it for a bit) but I'll be doing that in a few months. The box needs some TLC which I just haven't had a chance to do, but it's on track. |

Location: Upper Left USA | LOL, a public service reminder that Procrastinator's Anonymous will be having monthly meetings at a time and date to be determined later...
I like the idea of sending them (there are others out there) to Mother.
In fact, Miles... maybe Mother can fix one of the boxes!
Why I bring this up:
1 - I just picked up a good copy from Ebay for $20.00 and was reminiscing.
2 - These are so valuable in the sentimental sense I want to see them shared.
3 - My name is Mike and I am a procrastinating hoarder... and in this pile over here... oh, my car keys!

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Yes, I would be very interested in where these items have been, or have been sequestered (in that case, not likely to be revealed!). So, please make inquiries, & try to track down these critters! I would suggest "Plan B", given The Mothership has departed, is to have Alpep & Mr. Ovation keep them, if they can be located. |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | I do indeed have one of them. If I can refer you to my post just a couple up from this one, that in October of 2016 we were considering sending it to the mothership for possible update repair of box etc.. and maybe some additions to the collection. Things have been sorta fluid since then, up to and including this latest NAMM 2019 show which I was "supposed" to attend. I was going to bring it with me to show off to the folks at DW. I would still like to do this, but at this point, I think I'd like to track down the 2nd book first so they are both in Alpep's or my hands. |
