Contact Jim Steed/ POBox 948 Richmond KY (KY) 40475 Mr Steed ran a seven-part article in the American Bee Journal, Oct 83 to Apr 84, entitled "Collecting Honey Pots and Other Bee Paraphernalia." He lists sources from all over the US and the world, as I recall. More recently a woman ran the same type of article, single installment, in [Gleanings in ] Bee Culture (within the past two years). Can't give specifics because I don't subscribe to BC but read a friend's copy. BTW, when I attended Apimondia Nagoya 1987 Steed had me look up a Nipponese honeypot collector w/ whom he was making exchanges. Sayonara und Bonne Chance! Jack the B-man PS When a visitor stopped by from Finland two years ago he gifted us w/ a honeypot containing honey! (We don't collect HPs.) Visitors were here yesterday from TN but no honeypot, just honey! All this -- the upshot of our journal articles over the years. Mighty small world.
