Default Bye for now, and a small request
Posted By: Ben

Hi folks.

In the next week, I will be embarking on a summer job (as a canoe tripper) that will take me far, far away from the internet for the next few months. I think it will be a refreshing break from the routine of "average everydayness" (guess the quote anyone?). I am concerned, however, that some of my stolen cards might show up unbeknownst to me while I'm gone. So, I'm posting this for two reasons....to say "bye for now" to all my peers here on the forum, and to ask everyone if they could please keep a close eye out for my collection if any of it happens to show up somewhere, ebay or otherwise.

I'm incuding a small sampling of a few of my old favorites at the bottom here, as a visual aid. Thanks alot...and have a wonderful summer everyone.

Ben

website link, where the entire collection can be seen: http://www.geocities.com/mc_big_ben/tobacco_cards

People have asked me if any progress on the investigation has been made, and unforunately the answer is no. You'd think that at least SOME of the cards have to show up eventually though, so I figure it's probably worth my while bugging you all about it again on the off chance that they do turn up this summer while I'm gone. Thanks again.

Have a good time this summer Ben. I thought I spotted your 205 Joss and almost had a heart attack when I saw it, but it turned out to be very similar but in the end, different.
