[IRCA] QSL and radio recording preservation



There is a museum in Chicago dedicated to the preservation of
broadcasting related artifacts. I wonder if these folks would be
interested in housing and preserving a broadcast QSL collection? Here is
some info I pulled from a related web site.
-------
The Museum of Broadcast Communications will be closed to the public
until Spring 2007. The Museum is currently moving from the Chicago
Cultural Center to a new home not yet announced. The new facility will
include expanded archives and exhibit galleries, increased seminars and
public events, a radio and television studio, a gift shop and a cafe. 

The Museum of Broadcast Communications opened to the public in 1987.
Bruce DuMont, the well-known political commentator and radio show host,
is the founder and president of the Museum. The Museum includes
broadcast-related exhibits and archives from which you can request
videotapes to view in carrels on the premises. The Museum includes
costume memorabilia, a Sports Gallery and an advertising exhibit. The
Museum is also home to the Radio Hall of Fame, which exhibit includes
collectibles and recordings from old radio shows.
