I just wanted to inform one and all that from here on in, my prices will
reflect M. Donnelly's 1997 catalog prices. After I sell off my complete
collection of tools and ephemera, you will be able to find me somewhere in
the Bahamas on my personal island. With internet access of course.

I too, received my catalog yesterday. It's obvious that Martin didn't get his
copy of the new Walters Price Guide before he went to press. How about this?
Walters has the Stanley #98 Marking/Mortise Gauge at $15-$40. The cheapest
one in Donnelly's is _$115_.

If Martin can actually get these prices, Ralph should be able to unload his
collection for a cool 2.5 million ;^)
