    WE RECEIVED THESE MELON BEADS FROM
    A FELLOW IN HIS 60'S-70'S WHO HAD STORED
    THEM IN A SHOE BOX FOR 20 + YEARS.
    THESE WERE PURCHASED BY HIS MOTHER
    WHO WAS A COLLECTOR.
    SHE WAS PRONE TO COLLECT BUT DISPLAYED
    HER ITEMS IN A GLASS SHOWCASE AND SELDOM
    WORE HER COLLECTION.
    SHE HAD LIVED IN TUCSON AND WAS IN HER 90'S WHEN
    SHE GAVE HER COLLECTION TO HIM.
