Frog Tool Co., Chicago

Anyone know what happened to that guy, Rich, the owner? I know he went
into business elsewhere. Got to meet James Krenov personally in there
back in the '70s, and Rich was always a good conversationalist. Used to
talk about how famous people would come in for hobby supplies while staying
in town and you'd never recognise them.

His shop/store in Chicago fell victim to gentrification and very expensive
loft spaces. Somehow I believe he retreated to Dixon Iliinois, but this is an
unconfirmed rumor
