Allen, I need to do the same thing! I was so happy when I received a handwritten note from General Grant the other day informing me that he now had a seamstress and that his products were available again. The last time I ordered from him I needed some dove harnesses in certain colors that he was out of. I was surprised that he remembered and told me those colors were now available.

Gen's eye sight is almost gone but his memory is sharp as a tack. He remembers everything and everyone he meets.

Regan, I'm very glad to see you also appreciate his work. It seems like his stuff is still a fairly well kept secret on some levels. I was kicking myself for selling what I had years ago, since I had accumulated nearly every one of the dove and silk effects. I just thought I really wasn't going to come back to performing again. As many people have said, the clasps he uses on the harnesses are the best. I've tried to use other stuff since then, and I've always been disappointed. I'm now regretting never buying some of the other items which are no longer available, such as a zombie gimmick, since it looks like he will not be making them any longer.
I was thinking just last night that I wish there were more footage of his performances floating around out there. I suppose Dave might be the one to ask if anything like that exists? If it does, I believe it would be worth the effort to try and get some of it out there for people to see. A total class act. I had the privilege of seeing him live only once, and it was worth the trip. I bet Dave doesn't remember me, but I met him the same night as well ;-) Now if General would only give away the secret formula for colouring those doves....

General is a class act and his harnesses are the only ones I use. It's like they were custom made for my hands and doves, not to mention the best price on the market.
