Wow, Gary, you gave me a start!  I was thinking someone was getting 
ready to advertise Dan's demise.  Fortunately that is NOT THE CASE.  Dan 
has had some serious medical issues for the last few years and they 
continue.  However, he looks well enough in some of the videos Robert 
has been posting and I'm glad of that.  Dan Ludwig has been selling 
antiques for as long as I've known him and he is well known at the tool 
shows up and down the east coast.  Dan closed a shop in Adamstown 
recently and it looks like he is continuing his down sizing.

You can find Robert Porter on facebook and review what he is planning to 
do for this on-line sale.  Planning seems to be continuing.  Dan and 
Robert have a close relationship.  Dan often referring to Robert as his 
other son. The sale should be interesting.
