Default Congrats

Joe, Really nice collection...wasn't even familiar with Jarvis till this post....much less anyone who collected it...That Ralph J. Christian did a real good presentation in that power point...quick concise...learned a lot...I'm guessing you may be from Detroit to collect Jarvis...By the way...you'll see another of that small yellow Jarvis poster in the 2013 National story I'll be posting on my site pretty quick...was in the booth of Brian Dec I believe

I recall reading Cobb retired to Palo Alto California and was quite a character...got in a beef with P.G.& E., the local utilities company over his bill....refused to pay it...they shut off his power....he lived without gas and electricity to show'um who's boss....

Another one I recall was he was up in Lake Tahoe with friends...I guess at a cabin or something....he wanted to go into town or casinos or something...friends were afraid to drive in snowstorm....and he drove them all at hair raising speeds...Something like all that but point was he had to have his way and show up everybody...
