Thanks Bill - I really don't need anything from it. I was going through, for the first time, a big envelope (10"x12") of reams of stuff sent to Austin Hogan by Charlie Price (they were great friends) that, among other things, Austin had given to me. That book was one topic of their correspondence along with some copied pages from it.
At some time in the future I'll start a thread with a lot of this stuff as a way of sharing it with the Parker Community. There are some things I'm not at liberty to share - such as many pages of progress reports written by Walter A. King on Charlie Parker's apprenticeship in various departments of the Parker gunmaking business. Charlie wrote that they need to be protected and sent on to Louis Parker, which I will do. (better late than never) They concern his Dad, after all.
