Jim & Gail Spann Collection – Saturday Collector Day 2009

Every year at the Westward Look Mineral Show a special collector is invited to display their collection in the lobby on Saturday – it’s called Saturday Collector Day. For the 2009 event, Jim & Gail Spann were invited to display their jaw-dropping collection that had people packed, three rows deep, for the entire afternoon. Jim and Gail took a few minutes out of their day to sit down with Dave Wilber and talk about this collection. Here is a five minute clip of this interview. The entire 16 minute segment can be found on our full DVD program.
