Fred W. had a display in a entire room by himself. If I remember right he had 3 generation of multiple smiths. Largest private collection I've seen outside of Japan. 

And Japans weren't private. 

I'd didn't even know it was there until Russel A. told me about it. Now that I'm thinking back, it could of been private. I took photos , but that was a 

few computers back. :laughing:

Enjoyed seeing the picture of the shipping box located behind the naval sword.  While some were carried aboard ship by the returning servicemen, many more arrived stateside via the mail.  Thanks for sharing your photo-essay.
