You stole it at that price, Larry!

I've never even seen a picture of the B&B Keely before.

If Bill & Bob were still around, they'd be beaming with joy over your find and the reactions. Heartiest of congratulations, Larry. Wow, fifteen years; your steadfast pursuit is worth remembering, and repeating somewhere along the line. ---Brian Powell
