Wow, small world. I live 5 minutes from there and got my first exposure to straights in C&E. I bought a green handled Badger/Bristle blend brush which I still own. That was over 15 years ago. Too bad the stores are no longer what they once were.

As for the local Trumpers guy, go to www.samuelparker.com . It is an upscale local haberdasher with a touch of old England located in the Mt. Washington section of Baltimore. Tell Ken I sent you. Great store, great owner.

On my visit I got to try on a $1100 Ralph Lauren purple label sport coat......on my way home I bought lottery tickets <g>.
