How odd, I worked at AHC when I was in high school, so that would have been around 1968 and 1969, but I don’t remember ever taking one in there for display. Maybe to show it off at some point, but not for display, at least not as I remember. Of course I’ve slept since then, probably fried a few brain cells, too, so maybe it was in there briefly, I honestly don’t remember. Can’t ask Dick or Doris about it, last I heard they were no longer available, and Jeff didn’t work there when I did. He moved the operation somewhere out in Fairfax (?) when that whole area got leveled. Don't know whatever happened to Perry. Is Jeff still in business?
