John Stall obituary, age 29, in 1807, from the Feb. 5th, Philadelphia Gazette.

John Stall, tongue and groove combination, beech, 8 15/16", earliest A2 imprint. Wedges are different from the two outlines shown in GAWP5. (The groove wedge outline has the least wear / alteration.) Groove iron is marked Green.

(The presentation of visually based elements (scale imprints, scale drawings, etc.) is a challenge, especially when moving from the printed page to the realm of an electronic medium. For reference, the original GAWP 5, CAWP, BARS and SOJ publications had pages which were 8-1/2" in width.)
