I was contacted by my friend ray.mac and Al E. Gator while on their way to a stamp show about a classic Jersey Shore cover. I didn't think I could get it but I threw caution to the wind and picked it up anyway!! Glad I did too! I haven't done any research on it yet as I just got it but I wanted to share the sellers image of it.

OK wt1 looked up ES Carter and said that was a very common name and that wasn't the correct one..I'm still going to read it though since I'm part way through it already...it's very interesting anyway!

Too bad it's not the same guy, but I also thought that book looked interesting. I saved it so I can read it, too. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Did you see the patents this guy invented? I think that in itself is quite fascinating!
