Some collectors may desire a pdf of the actual record in addition to a Parker letter. Maybe this could be considered with an additional fee. Craig

Has the BOD considered offering to purchase the Parker order/production books currently held by the Delgregos? I think they have 2 or 3. Perhaps $2000 per book could jar them loose and the money spent recovered from additional letters or a special fund raiser. I would be willing to contribute.

Bill, I know there have been many attempts made but that's something that others in the PGCA are involved in. I stay out of it!

Well the disk would be desirable, but somehow it sure wouldn't replace the letter from Chuck, which in my opinion truly adds to the value of a gun.

Nice to know the records will be preserved, but I suggest, and you may already be doing this, backing them up on an external hard drive.

Yes Keavin, backups are being done outside of the hard drive. External storage is cheap these days.

Chuck it was great getting to meet you in person at the HOF banquet. We're fortunate to have you doing all this hard work.
