With a name like Old Dominion, I immediately thought there "may" be a Virginia connection... and then I saw the Stock Certificate photo and saw Roanoke, VA..... pretty neat!!!

Not to place too fine a point on this, and I don't want to embarrass anyone, but his name is George. First name George; last name Paul. Sorry, but I see this way more frequently than I think is acceptable, especially considering how much, and for how long he's contributed to the Antique Phonograph world. George is too nice, and too humble to say anything on his behalf.

I hope I'm not being too presumptuous.

Respectfully,
Fran
Well, thanks Fran - - I appreciate that but it's really no big thing. It does happen surprisingly often, but I suppose that's the curse of having two first names. Just ask John Wayne, Elton John, Keith Richard, Cher...
