It wasn't us at the PTHT. We were awarded none of our selections and the little Army Diesel was one of them. Later! Mr. Ed |

I have received an email today from Molly saying "Most of the items remain:we will likely be listing them with Ozark Mountain in the near future." |

"Most of the items remain." If they are going to list them with Ozark, then they were planning on selling them all along. So what happened to the 501 (C) 3 section that says they must first attempt to donate them to another 501 (C) 3? I know we asked for four or five pieces but were awarded nothing. Did I hear that secion explained wrong? Later! Mr. Ed |

Mr. Ed, Any answers to your questions, and they are correct questions, must come from St. Louis. May I suggest that all interested parties start an avalanche of inquiries to the museum? |
