DECADES ago, I used to receive regular parcels of 78rpm phonorecords
won in auctions...from the US and UK!
I used to take a copy of my "Dating Guide" to prove they were over 50
years old...and then, first, duty-free, and then "Sales Tax Free!"
In a decade of that, only ONE Custons person noticed that the
addressee of the parcel happened to be the author of the reference
work being cited...?!
