Re: [IRCA] QSLs

["Bill Harms" <wharms@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For the record, last year I went down to College Park (University of 
Maryland) to look at QSLs from the Spokane Washington radio stations. 
The staff was very accommodating and even let me handle the QSLs.  
They will copy the QSLs to jpegs for a price, or you can make black 
and white photo copies.  Overall, my experience was very good.

If someone is concerned about their collections being properly taken 
care of, the University of Maryland's CPRV collection would be a good 
place to bequeath their treasures.

You can find some of the QSLs that I saw at the U of M on my Spokane 
Radio History web page http://spokane.philcobill.com/index.php under 
the individual radio station entries (Not in Bill QSL Gallery). Some 
of you may recognize the names of people like Roy Millar.
