First, some corrections to the last issue. John Kraljevich's ad should have linked to this page: http://www.jkamericana.com/dupre/ .

And while I got Joe Levine's new ad right, I had a typo in the headline of the article on his upcoming sale; the closing date is June 30, 2014. Also, to view the catalog, see: Presidential June 30, 2014 Catalog. Thanks to Bob Merchant for catching these.
