Furniture maker/draftsman/author Franklin Gottshall's worldly possessions are scheduled to be sold at auction. http://www.auctionzip.com/Listings/1229309.html
 
I called  Mr Gottshall in 1983 when I was looking for one of his out of print books.
He was 81 years old,He said that he only had  12 left & wanted to hang on to
them . I never could figure what he was going to do with 12 of them at 81 years old. oh well !
 
It figures that one of the few estate auctions that I would actually want to go to would be right in the middle of WIA. Oh well...
 
I plan on attending. If there are other SAPFM members there maybe we can have an informal meet.
