I frequently spent time at The Fields gallery in NY which I think was on
17th st ..and Jerry’s shop was not far from there I remember the shop was a
bit forboding when you walked in there was counter in front you and behind
rows of steel cages ..but a friendly staff and when you requested something
it was brought to the front counter for yr inspection on one occasion I was
interested in a mummy’s curse 1/2 sheet and one was brought out for my
inspection I thought the asking price was high and asked to speak to the
owner and jerry did come out and gave me a short course on title rarity and
condition I remember him as being personable and forthright. i left feeling
I could always go back there and buy with confidence
