...collection. Of the remaining 120-odd "possibles" still alive, most are what he calls "Reds and royalty," two categories that have not widely responded to his appeals, though he has the signatures of Yugoslavia's Tito and Italian Communist Palmiro Togliatti, of King Hussein of Jordan and Queen Frederika of Greece...
