I have them and a number of other similar favorites also, Tom, although, these days, mine are digital. Those artists and performers were from a different generation and value system but foundational to our own as were were young boys growing up. They contributed significantly to the value systems so many of us embrace today. I hope today's value-challenged can find a similarly good foundation to build on.
