Tfanjfly Society NEWSLETTER
TFanjfly Society NEWSLETTER Volume 2 Number 3 August 1991 FAMILY PROFILE THE STORY OF AN INDUSTRIOUS FAMILY Joseph Herman (J. H.) Rucker wanted to be a history professor, but never had the opportunity to obtain an education. His fervent desire was to make sure his nine children graduated from college. His wife, Mary Ophelia Fuller, had attended two years at a young women's academy, was an excellent pianist and taught piano. Together they raised and educated nine children. A cotton farmer, Rucker turned to dairy farming so that the children wouldn't have to miss school in the fall to help harvest the crop. Times were hard and money was scarce in the 1930s. There was no way that he could pay to educate his large family, so Rucker came up with an idea of bartering for their education. The J. H. Rucker Dairy would provide milk for McMurry College, a Methodist institution, Abilene, Texas, in exchange for tuition, books, and fees for nine children. The children milked the cows, bottled the milk, and delivered it to the college. Rucker recognized the college's need for garbage disposal, and he presented the idea of hauling away the college's garbage for free. The table scraps would feed his pigs to sell in order to supplement the family income. Each semester he presented a pig to the college in thanks. The family continued to supply the college with milk and carry away the garbage until the dairy went out of business shortly after Rucker's death in 1957. continued-on page 2 Oct. -

We Are Turning 40!
Page 1 KIT YOUNG’S SALE #128 WE ARE TURNING 40! This month marks our 40th year in business. I started back in the stone ages as a one-man gang, mainly doing shows and eventually advertising in The Trader Speaks, Sports Collectors Digest, then later in Baseball Hobby News, The Sporting News, USA Weekly, The Advertiser and more. I was joined by Scott Cowan when he was a mere child of 15 (he’s now 51), then within a short time by Rob Rosen, Bob Ivanjack & Nacho Arredondo. These 4 stalwarts have been my partners for a combined 110 years (average 27 years each). I’ve noted before that we started before there were official price guides and long before words like “faxing”, “emailing” and “Googling” were part of our world. It’s hard to believe but we opened our doors before Microsoft, Home Depot & Costco even existed. It’s been a great ride so far. Some of our clients have dealt with us for 20-30 years, some longer. It’s still a kick to go to a big card show and have people stop by to say they ordered their first card from us. They usually say they ordered with they were 9-12. These collectors now are often 40-50. Crazy! Special thanks to the 100,000+ collectors we’ve served over the past 4 decades. I look forward to the coming years. Kit, our late leader Patti, Scott, Bob, Nacho & Rob To celebrate this anniversary we are offering special 20-30-40% off sections in this sale. -
