A truly nice guy,
I had brief contact with Jim via e-mail last year whilst restoring my Micro mini.
He was always so polite & ended all his messages with 'God bless you'.
Jmc's are a real work of art , craftsmanship at its finest.
Rip Jim.

The Man who refused to ship his company out of the USA because he believed in Quality more than the profit.
What a Great Man :4_17_5:

Never had much involvement with JMC products but the items I did handle were a 'work or art'
A great loss of a true pioneer of our childhood/hobby

Never had a JMC, think I bought one of his caps a few years back and remember he was so pleased that old school stuff was loved and being collected way before all the other companies jumped on the band wagon to make a few quid.
RIP Jim.
