Stella asked me to suggest that you bid on this:

It's at the former Transportation Museum in Owatonna. Cabelas would
probably be willing to sell this cheap now they've turned the location
into a sporting-goods outlet.



I thought that sculpture(?) already sold once. Could be wrong.

Owatonna, MN is 60 miles (south) of Minneapolis/St. Paul and 50 miles
(north) of the Iowa border on I-35.

Just called the Owatonna Cabela's store. Sculpture is still there. Local
lady said it is owned by the pilot's widow, Dorothy. "Buzz" died in a 2002
crash IIRC. Museum is now closed.

I've got the family's phone #'s if you've got an eye for this kind of piece
