John Blennet sent me my first chondrite, a Gold Basin individual, completely unsolicited[out of the goodness of his heart]for the benifit of science and a struggling rank amateur, trying to get a handle on "stones", before I found this List and Authenticated Sales and Auctions backed by I.M.C.A.

Three weeks ago, I was in Tucson for a couple of days
and visited the Flandreau. I was impressed by not only
the meteorites that John Blennert has put on display
there, but by the gold specimens as well. A young lady
working there told me that Mr. Blennert donates quite
a lot of space rocks to science and educational
institutions every year.  Pretty cool, don't you
think? I hope to meet him in person some day.

Hmmm....I had no idea that Marvin had the largest
private meteorite
collection in the world.  Learn something new
everyday.

Also, I hope the Flandreau gives proper credit to
John Blennert for all
the "freebies" he has donated to them over the
years.

Sounds like a nice event indeed.  Thanks for sharing
Eric.
