Glenn Overton, maker of WW, lived in Binghamton, NY. He moved to Montana and some of the last tubes of WW have Libby, Montana as an address. There was speculation several years ago that WW may be produced again but that didn't happen. If 'Fishin Jimmy' means that Mr. Overton has passed away, I guess the secret of his formula will remain just that. Fortunately, my stock of the wax will never dry up.
