[R-390] Oldest Recorded R-390A Example

[Bob Camp]

Hi

There used to be a guy who showed up at the Hosstraders hamfest one of 
who's businesses was to make up name plates. He had an interesting 
collection of "number one" serial number name plates. I have always 
wondered how many of them eventually will show up at auction.

	Take Care
