Aw, no Pix on yout head?

Dang!

As much as I'd like to bring this along to Memphis and wear it - and possibly coronate Ed Leonard, the logistics of doing so are just a bridge too far. I am departing for South Africa on 6/4 and flying home via Chicago on 7/22. As much as I would like to take this thing along, I would, literally, have to carry it half-way around the world and home again to do this. A great story perhaps, but a really, REALLY dumb thing to do with this irreplaceable artifact.

It goes to Indy, via UPS overnight, on Tuesday next. To arrive on Wednesday. With Earp's TKN badge. Both destined for display for the Centennial and beyond.




But, you know, now that we have one, and can measure it . . .

Brother John,

Are you going where I think you are headed with that last sentence? Are you suggesting that our band of merry little brothers here attempt to have these fantastic items replicated? If so, I am all in favor. It cannot be that hard to find someone to custom make these for us, and I for one would wear the heck out of it. So if that was path you were intending to travel, you got my vote.

[Tom Earp]

John wit all of the Miles you collect you should be able to go anywhere you want to, Si?

Consider my PM to you.

First, items at IHQ really need to be cataloged. While man power is in a short supply, well?

I know of some of the things I and jono have donated and were unseen.

Space is a major problem as I am sure there is a treasure trove of many old and important tid bits!

I stopped by a local shop several weeks ago and the owner said she could easily make a fez for me. Sure enough, there was another lady upstairs working at a sewing machine.

Next week I'll take in the ebay photo and see what she can do.
