Very nice archive, Peter. That's a good way to present these types of 
scans. Many DXers and SWLs will do something similar to show off their 
collections. But as Craig pointed out, the work is in the scanning. 
Reportedly CPRV has 30,000 cards in their archive. I cannot imagine 
scanning all those myself, even if the Univ. of Md. would let me access 
the cards to scan them.

I'm digging deeper into the CPRV situation, and if I uncover anything 
promising I'll report back,

Brett
