Unlike the historian, or his eloquent successors on the air, here we have avoided the podcaster’s oft edible spoken words in favor of editable written prose. The example of collector David W. Niven’s prepared comments, focused on listening, is what got this show started. The collectors who have generously posted online have made this show possible.
