Re: Eugene Oregon show

I've never been before, but I won't miss this one.

Gents, if anyone on this list will attend, please let me know. While I am a collector and not a commercial type, I would love to meet you all. Further, fishbowls of beverages will be on me.

Best,
Kevin Preston

Re:

Jim, . . . On reflection, it seems to me that animal horns of all types are curved to begin with, and that pressing or cutting them flat wouldn't change their nature permanently.
