Sitting here doing some work for Madison Poster and Notch 6 tonight and I could not help but read over this text from the Lionel 1953 dealer answer book called "A Word to the Wise". I know there are many of you who feel your local hobby shop has completely forgotten everything written in this text, and I also know there are a group of owners who consider this a code to live by. It's funny how many of the values that Lionel promoted in 1953, are the ones that customers still crave today out of their LHS. Maybe our friends at the manufactures should consider sending these out still.....
