Honored to be a hutchbook specialist!

[epackage]

I want to thank Ron Fowler for making me a listed specialist on hutchbook.com for all my efforts and research on Paterson hutches, I am honored to be in the company of the people he has added long before me, here's what he has to say about having two hutch experts from one town...

Jim Eifler, the newest HBCA member, has joined Tom Leavy as a designated Hutchinson Specialist for Paterson, New Jersey. Why have two Hutchinson specialists for Paterson? How about because we have identified 149 different Paterson Hutchinsons! That total exceeds the number identified for 24 entire states, each individual territory and country, and all of the Canadian provinces except Ontario! Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia are the only cities with more Hutchinsons than Paterson.

Here is the writeup on hutchbook...

I really appreciate the work that guys like Ron, Roger-ABN, Charlie-njbottles.com, Tod-sodasandbeers.com, Rick-ricksbottleroom.com and others put into making these sites run smoothly, and how they fill them with great content and people to help expand the hobby. I've only been at it 4 years but I am hooked...

Congratulations, Jim,

You Paterson Specialist, you! I just have to ask, of the 149 known, how many are gracing your mantels, shelves, cabinets & assorted outposts?

149!

Thanks Tim & Surf...

I'm thinking in the 100-105 range Surf, but I'm hoping a couple of trades will bring me 5-10 more in the not too distant future. The fact that we have more in one town than 24 states have total blew my mind...
