I have a new copy or two for sale at Marfa, west Texas.

I have a copy, inscribed "To Fred,
With best wishes"
Signed by Derek Piggott
"Black Forest 15th Oct 1978"

Anyone have an idea who "Fred" was?

Asked Derek to re-autograph - he did "7th Feb 02"

Book is not for sale.


Guessing either Fred Pool or Fred Daams. Fred Pool is an SSA member.
Fred Daams membership expired in 2007, but I believe I met him at the
USSSM's annual banquet in August. If that's him, he's a docent one
day per week at http://www.pwam.org/ and resides in Canon City, CO.
