Well Lex, I was there and sorry that I missed you. As to shining things up a bit. I have found that chrome plating gives a lifelong shine that simply can't be beat. Gold or silver plating is nice but, pricey. Suggest that you book JTR right now while his offer is open. He can get busy real fast, especially when those old ones show up.
Jim, thank you for your approving comments! Much appreciated. It will eventually pass through your neck of the woods, but have no idea when that might be. If it drops off in KC feel free to gather it up for a spell.
Dick
