** Some of the information in this 'report' was obtained from the paper money site of the Smithsonian. This came about because Heron was searching through some Bishoprics for our amigo bueno GaCooke. Trying to find an issue with initials E.B. Heron was searching Bishopric Freising and using a Googly map to locate Freising. Whilst using the Googly map, el Heron noticed that Freising was fairly close to Passau. So, Heron decided to search Bishopric Passau for an E.B. coin or token. No luck there, however, Heron found a reference of Smithsonian paper money section during his search of Passau. This also produced another Googly map of Passau. A somewhat older map showing all the towns that were included in District Passau. This type of research is truly a lot of fun. And one thing leads to another and so on! Reminding Heron of an older song with the line 'on and on, on and on, on and on! Recorded by Gladys Knight in 1974. This is a great hobby for a lifetime! On and on**
Atencion: This note IS NOT FOR SALE.
