Why? Because he is our famous, beloved, Classic-era champion icon. He
is very much a trail blazer, a pioneer in his own way. One of the
first to bring a witty, contemporary sense of of humor to the
drawbacks of the modern game--a game that has no spectator appeal.

We at Hardbat Intenation could never understand why he never made it
really big.

He has the best hand-finished, balanced blades on the market and a
limited supply of Leland cover sheets. Cost of racket and rubber,
$100. Yes, he will be at the US Closed in Las Vegas, December 19-23
with a copious supple of equipment on for sale.

Contact Mr. Marty Reisman at "martyreis@..." to place your order, please.
Hardbat International will give you, the reader, a free one-hour
Classic table tennis lesson for each purchase. Hardbat International
cares.

Thank you very much, uh, huh...
