BIG JC THANKS TO THESE AGING PUNKERS:

Markel Tumlin for a 1985 date, with a promise of more to come...
Kip Roe of Doc & The Pods
bequeathed to the JCR museum
the diamond shaped window frame
from The Jockey Club's front door.
It's pitina is filthy and gross
but to clean it would destroy its' collectors value.

article from The Dayton Daily News.
She sent it to me the day it was
published and it was uploaded in less
than 24 hours!. Victoria deserves
some kinda JCR award! She ROCKS!
