iCongratulations! Joe
I'm pretty sure that refractor belonged to Brian Page. He brought 3 scopes
to the ALL AZ 2001 including an Orion 4.7" refractor with a Chromacor.

Newly published is "The Night Sky Companion: A Yearly Guide to Sky-Watching

I took the cover photo of Rick Scott silhouetted at his C-8 at Vekol Road
a few years ago:

Here's the unmodified cover photo on my web site:

(Notice they moved Venus for the book cover!)
Also, this photo I took of someone's refractor at the 2001 All-Arizona
Star Party is the frontispiece of the book
