A
Note On Stockton Points |
| In
this release we have another short run of Stockton points. Stockton points
are rare, and are, for the most part isolated to a narrow "band" extending
eastward from Contra Costa County to the Stockton area, and slightly
southward into San Joaquin County in Northwestern California, and these are
seldom offered for sale anywhere! |
