Re: [IRCA] (was: New MW QSL) Ernest R. Cooper?

[The Kaskey Family <kaskeyfamily@xxxxxxxxx>]

Apologies! I should have read the next post.  John beat me to my assumption!  Those were tough days for 'the builders' of NRC.  Ray Edge, Carroll Seth, Hal Wagner & unfortunately several others all victims of automobile accidents.  In the 50s-60s there were few (if any) freeways or interstates, many two & even worse three lane roads and most people drove like maniacs (we did)......On the good side there were no L.A. freeways either.

Edge, who published the NRC bulletin, worked for the Buffalo, N.Y., PD, and could easily be described as "rather brusque." Ray died in an auto accident in 1965 while he and several other family members were returning from a tour of the Corning Glass Works, where the late Carleton Lord, another of the legendary figures of BCB DX, dating back to his columns in Radex in the '30s and NNRC in the '40s and '50s, worked.
