Auctioneer’s Note: Neal was 88 and followed our auctions since I was a kid. He was a true picker. Neal served our country in the Air Force, was an avid reader, worked for Adam’s Milk in Hannibal as a delivery man & was an over the road truck driver, and past president of St. Louis bottle collector association. He was a big collector of farm manuals & literature, and loved to set up at Old Thresher’s. Nancy’s maiden name was Fagan and she was raised in the Palmyra, Hannibal area, so there is a lot of memorabilia from that area. See you at the sale. David, Dusty & Bill
