My current - updated 2-10-06 - "Wants and Needs" in no particular
order of desire. I like to trade for items so if you see something you
think you can provide, keep in mind your own 'want list.' ;-> Just
e-mail me here: fredmm@aol.com with
your ideas! Thanks in advance!

Any go-along item. Some items I particularly enjoy are: Ensemble ads, vintage
price lists, early collector guides, original newspaper and magazine ads,
and those tough-to-find rep catalogues (see photo page for some examples).

In the same theme as #1 above, I also like the go-along glassware that
was marketed with the Ensembles. This includes all four sizes of the glasses
(in all Ensemble versions), the stir sticks, the individual salt &
pepper shakers, and the hard-to-find glass ashtrays (see photo page for
some of these too).
