JOHN SCHAYER QUIZ ANSWER

  Last week I asked, can anyone tell us about John
  Schayer's line of work outside of numismatics?

  Dave Bowers writes: "Schayer was in the boot and shoe
  trade and also was a wholesaler of alligator skins."

  David F. Fanning writes: "Schayer sold animal skins --
  in particular, he focused on alligator-skin products like
  boots. He had the most hideous logo I think I've ever
  seen, of an alligator putting on a pair of alligator-skin
  boots. I wish I could share  the image with E-Sylum
  readers (I know you've seen it, Wayne), as it really
  is a monument to tasteless art."

  [Absolutely correct. -Editor]
