[Cob] RE: Tin can roof

[Bill&Julie]

Oh,, WOW,,,  I just got some large format aluminum plates from
a MOM and POP printing house, in a small town in Minnesota,
for 5 cents each,,,   ( $0.05 )... That would be 20 for ONE DOLLOR... USD.

That is the same price I paid for them 30 years ago in Indiana..
Just maybe I got a good deal this time...
