I have all the issues, I think except #1. What do you want for that. Harry's on Greenmount a few blocks from Memorial Stadium, is where your father probably got issue # 1. They had a Les Amis chapter. Anyway if you showed one off the Orman's who owned the place your WA, you got 50% off on one bottle each month. I got some d"Yquem & Mondavi Reserve that way. Eventually Bob decided being in a business relationship with any store was not good so one day, I had a $52 Ch Marguax ready for my discount and Alan just smiled and said "offer over." Alan now does commercial real estate and has handled the sale of many wine shops. His cousin Lenny was my union's and my own lawyer, which never got Alan to budge on a discount for me. I sort of blew my good will buying top of the line wines at the 50% discount.
