Phase II of the records preservation project will start with post-WW II invoices and move forward. This phase should begin in the first quarter of 2016. The post-war records are only invoices with no correspondence.

Will the years prior to 1927 be covered at some point?

Alan...We should have the records to 1920 completed sometime in the first quarter 2016. This will complete all of the correspondence, invoices, etc. kept in boxes at the Museum of Springfield History. Phase II will begin after that and will focus on the invoices from 1946 to 1948.

Thanks Bill

I assume that the years of '42, '43, '44 and '45 are not being copied as there was very little going on other than military contracts?

Alan...You are correct.

Letter of Authenticity - Roy Jinks

Need to have two S&W pistols authenticated. Found form on the Internet for mailing $75 to Mr. Roy Jinks but don't know if the form is current or if Mr. Jinks is still in business. Can you verify please?

Thank you.

The info you found is correct and Mr. Jinks is very much still in business.

I sent my check off about a week ago. I'm excited to be a part of this and can hardly wait to get my card. Did I notice an older message about "badges". Are there any left or are there more being made?

 

[Doc44]

Badges can be ordered from Sheryl Cheely. You should contact her after you receive your membership information.
