The DelGrego family has continuously stated unequivocally that those volumes in their posession will never be released.

Did the surviving members say that and say it after the passing of the two principles of the business?

Murphy, you weren't involved with copying the stock books at Remington? You must have been involved then with copying the order books. I'm pretty sure you knew that the authors of TPS were given permission by Remington and had the stock books copied in Ilion in the 1990's. Those stock book entries are what the Serialization Book is primarily composed of. Before publication of the Serialization Book, the PGCA was allowed to copy the Order Books and every grade 3 or above that was missing due to a missing stock book, was included in the Serialization Book.

Yes, as I recall, Commander Roy Gunther copied the stock books the year before our PGCA group went up to copy the order books. Thanks for reminding me, Chuck. Eighty is not the new fifty, regardless of what anyone tells you.
