I recently got a paper from James B. Murphy, the renowned prominent herpetologists at the National Zoological Park in Washington. And he gave a list of all these dealers that used to deal in reptiles. And on that list was Quivira Specialties Company, Topeka, Kansas, he was at 21st in Gage, not too far from where we are right now, and just down the street from the zoo. And he used to supply universities and biology labs. and so on, with all kinds of plentiful reptiles. And he was an older fella. Nice, a little cranky at times, I guess I’m probably getting the same way. But I would go down, and even before I lived in Topeka, I would go down and see him, because he had all these neat reptiles.
