32. "I don't think she's disagreeing with that"
In response to In response to 30


  

          

And yeah it would be great for us to own it, but my concern is more who can buy it and take care of it and respect the material the best. I've seen some collections that are in terrible shape. I personally would want what is best for the longevity of the collection, blk owned or not.
