From @RickyG 's collection:
Honest I'm not completely sure where I gathered some of these things...when RBL closed and I with two other (far more well healed than I) took over the company to liquidate it I think I found the Lange banner and Lange Cup Panel Banner then. The old "stove-pipe" I took to the last lunch meeting I had with RB and had him sign the boot. He gave me a little "hell" for using that boot since it became almost as big a warranty problem as the "Lange Flow" problem, but I explained it was the only one I had with a color that his signature would show on. He signed this boot and the first pair of RBL white "team" ski that I made for myself as training for my new job. The "Pink Panthers" I bought years...and years ago at the Gart Brothers close out store...too small...so the ski mileage is small and the boots are not beat up. Lastly is the last remaining "Lange World Beater" sticker I have. It lived for a long time in the lead sharpener I kept with my drafting equipment (yes lead holder/drafting machine/triangles the works) and so has a little graphite smudges.
