Wow, sharing billing with the late Bill Tapply is to be cherished.

I really enjoy Rod Crossman's art and even featured one of his prints on the cover of a past issue of Parker Pages. I think it was this one...

That November/December 2001 cover with the old geezer rabbit hunting with the hammer gun was painted by William Harnden Foster and also made an appearance on an L.L. Bean catalog cover several decades ago.

Forgot about Bill Tapply, but I really like his stories as well.

I've spoken with Joel and there may be some back issues available; just what I don't yet know, but I will pass infomration along when i know. I can post it here or reply to PM's from interested parties, whichever is appropriate.

Found 6 issues this morning. Also found copies of the now defunct Hunt Camp Journal and Sporting Collectables.

I spoke with Joel Marvin; he believes he has all issues except #1 and possibly #2. I asked how he wanted to handle it, whether he wanted me to pass on his contact info, etc. but I have not received a reply. I don't want to do so without his permission, and I don't want to be the middle man either, so I guess it's on hold until Joel responds.
