I can tell you are telling the truth but it sounds unbelievable!
It's hard to believe such an incredibly valuable historical artifact almost became trash!
I suppose some people are just lucky. From what I have read here you are certainly a person who deserves such luck.
I expect the photos are in here somewhere, I'm gonna look at it!

It's a nice area, so the city would come clean it up right away. Then the sinking feeling would set in every time I'd pass there, NOT wanting to see a mattress or an old fridge dumped again. But this particular Saturday morning, there WAS junk. But not a fridge or a sofa; it was a 1954 CBS-Columbia color set with the 19VP22 tube in it!!!!!!! In mint condition!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was a feeling that I bet you're thinking of
