Re: [IRCA] Patrick and email QSLs.

Patrick,

There is a place where old QSL's are saved and stored to preserve this 
aspect of radio history. The Committee to Preserve Radio Verifications 
(CPRV) set up and run by noted SW DX'er Jerry Berg has been in operation 
since 1986. They collect old QSL's from DX'ers that have retired or passed 
on and store them with help from the Library of American Broadcasting at the 
University of Maryland. They cover both SW and MW veries. They provide 
stickers that you put on your QSL albums to let others know that, when they 
are no longer needed or wanted, the QSL's can be sent to the CPRV's address. 
The last I heard, they had a collection in the 10's of thousands.

Their website and contact info is:

Hope this helps.

John Fisher,
Kingston, ON
