There are no "new" books, it's just that now we actually own the "stock books/ledgers" which contain information that the old copies of the books were left out due to the size of the xerox machine copier. I'm re-photographing the stock books which will include the new information left out in the original copying that was done in the 1990's.

Each stock book/ledger contains approximately 105 pages. There are 52 stock books which equals 5,400+ individual pictures so you can see it will take a while to photograph all the books!

I am sure that all members appreciate the enormous task you are undertaking. If no one has done so, let me be the first to publicly thank you for what you are doing.

You are so right, William. We all owe Chuck thanks for all of his work.

I'm starting with SB #1 and working my way up. If you order a letter and I've photographed that SB, yes it will be included in your letter. Have patience. I'm trying to photograph a book per day so it won't take too long to do them all.

When I get a chance, I'll show what the extra columns contain.
