HI all,
I think that anyone who asks an IMCA dealer for provenance of a specimen
should expect to get it. IMCA member dealers should be held to a higher
authority if they want to be respected as IMCA members. I would think that
this is part of membership, but I could be wrong (since I'm not a
Hi Bob and List,

provide provenance information, regardless of whether they are an IMCA
