What is the range of serial numbers

Craig, if we bought both the order books and the stock books, the serial number range is everything that is available in the books. We already have all the information that is included in the order books. In 1998, we didn't copy any of the stock books as I recall, so all of that information will be new. We didn't have copying machines that would take the large size of the stock books. However, it will be a monumental job to digitize the stock books, because they are so fragile. I doubt that PGCA will tackle that job in the near future. I am waiting for John Davis to correct my statements and add to them.

Bill, the process is under way to digitize the full page images of the Stock Books. All the columns without data cut off. Much better technology is being used than what you guys had available at the time you went to Ilion.

This is the culmination of decades or hopes and wishes and very diplomatic discussions. These efforts have been ongoing but have finally come to a very happy conclusion.
This end result will be beneficial to the PGCA for many years to come. Congratulations to those who brought this effort to a conclusion! .

So, once the digitizing is done, will I be able to reorder all my letters, with updated info from the stock books included? I'll do it if there's any meaningful extra data. What do "you in the know" think, will it be worth it?
