Well, unmistakably the wording of DAVID NEW, the grand
old master of meteorite selling and trading since the
Nineteenfiftees in the United States, now residing in

Of course, this is still in my collection, and it is
going to stay there! A small goodie of 1.42 g with a
bit of crust, sold to me nine years ago, Bernd, as you
