GT AKA GeraldTomek has done it now!

I bought a Luftwaffe magazine..someone had used as a hammer. The bottom, the back..Every time I picked it up I wished I could find who did it and throttle em. Luftwaffe magazines don't grow on trees and this one needed some serious professional help. I sent it to GT in Phoenix and a day or two later I get it back. Stunning transformation. Dents, creases, gouges. Transformed into a beautiful preservation of a rare historical artifact. I have had GT work magazines for me many times before over the years and have always been impressed with the quality of his craftsmanship.This magazine was a reminder of just how talented the man really is.
Thanks Gerald.

As long as I can see good enough to make them better, I will continue to do so.... I can't thank Jerry Burney enough for all his support thru both good and hard times... As I read some of the threads that pay tribute to some of our lost, but fondly remembered members, I can recall the skill and kindness that is, and has always been a common thread here... I will go forward, Thanks to all, til....lat'r.....GT
