I recently received an email that the R.E. Wallace stamp and coin
store in Fort Worth, Texas, in business since 1948, has been padlocked
by the bank that holds the mortgage on the new building, built just
last year after the city of Fort Worth took her old property in an
eminent domain issue. Their website www.thecollectionbuilder.com
now directs to a tribute site which friends might want to visit.

I have no doubt that their shop was a great place to visit, talk coins, sell
coins, and buy coins. Such establishments are unfortunately dwindling in
number.

Due, no doubt, to the good folks here at RCC and their conspiratorial
ways!

It's more a by-product of gravity and mileage, methinks.
