Dusty - I missed your post and would love to have those DOLT items but I think you and I tried to agree on a price but it didn't work out for me?

Gnome, just to be accurate, the quote was "Freitag, you A-hole!", and it came from Dr. Johnathon Hemlock, in The Eiger Sanction.

I stand corrected! And for once, it is in an editable place! So I've copied the correction ~ Thanks!
Mahn when it rains, it pours, I've been on the Skillett for a few days.
Meaning that my post have landed with a thud.- all my posting from the
last 20 hours need to be edited or deleted.
thanks again for the exacting correction though,

Every Christmas, and at other times when I am so moved, I send DOLT's daughter and granddaughter, Audrey (LilaBiene here on the Taco) and Camilla ("The Muppet") some of my DOLT collection. Everyone who knows them and their story would agree that there are no more deserving and appreciative people who should receive the fruits of DOLT's labors than these two.
Gnome: Your close up pic of the two small pitons show a type I never owned. Since you have 2 of them, I suggest you give at least one of them to these two wonderful people. Many here, especially me, would hold you in the highest esteem if you made such a generous choice.
dee ee: The DOLT bolt hanger, hanging near the center of your display would be very much treasured by DOLT's daughter and granddaughter. Would you consider giving it to them?
Generosity has no price.

Boodawg - agree with you that Audry should have a collection of her father's creations. When I've had spares they were sent to her as well.
You are a very nice person!

I saw that horde of gear show up on Mnt Prj. -
it amazed me that I was the only one to respond.
I started up a correspondence. During which I tried not to tip the owners off as to any value.
I passed the pictures and info along to Audrey too.
She, if I remember correctly, asked only for pictures.
I have no ability to collect, and have One Long Dolt pin,(Picture Enhanced by Big Mike)
its origins and meaning to me, run very deep! it was given to me as my nut pick when I followed the Grandfathers of Rock Climbing, in the Gunks.
Boodawg, Roots!
My sincere prayers to both of you! Thank you gentlemen it restores my faith in climbers.
I've tried to chase down that horde I posted, with out any luck.
If there is anything that you need from me; the email addy, or the very thin back & forth,
please just say so.
