Mr. B's favorite cologne? It was a concoction based on the title of a well-known picture..."How Green Was My Money". :lol:

I think I know what Jack smelled like. Last year I bought an overcoat on EBay that belonged to Mr. Benny, and it still smells like cigars.

Makes sense.

Just curious, but how did you know the coat belonged to Jack? Do these things come with certificates of authenticity, like sports memorabilia does?

The coat came with a certificate of authenticity and a letter from a friend of Jack's, who he had given it to.
