[mr ed]

that's it,you should have a few more.."up on the roof.."for all the recent fellows the sport has lost.

Interesting, I thought Steady Ed was credited as the inventor, and that the pie pan lids were the 'original design', learn something new everyday... Pluto platter... I like that name

[Jack Moore]

I was think the same thing???

[Terry "the Pirate" Calhoun]

Ed invented "the modern Frisbee" which means he added the rings on the surface. And he invented the basket, for disc golf. Students threw Frisbee pie tins around, but Fred's was the first device made specifically for throwing.
