From the August/ September 1975 Mexico West Newsletter (by Tom Miller):
Interestingly, Choral Pepper (of Desert Magazine and Erle Stanley Gardner books) is mentioned at the end of the article.
I would meet both Choral and Coco about 5 years later... Choral in Coronado, CA and Coco at his original corner.

Saw Coco about a month ago as I was headed north after a little time in Mulege. I had some left over camping groceries that I dropped off to him. He
says he is doing well but it is obviously pretty quiet there right now. Says he isn't getting many visitors.

Visiting Coco does require stopping and pulling off to his new corner... Kind of lack seeing "The Thing" when driving across Arizona or the world's
biggest ball of yarn, wherever that is!
Coco is an attraction and an interesting visit...
Last March, we stopped at the new corner (Km. 179.5) to see how he was doing... and he was the happiest I had seen him in many years (although he
usually is happy to see visitors).
Here is Coco and Tom (TMW), March 30, 2022:
