I would be interested in seeing any photos you might want to share from your collections for each of the volumes that I am listing.…See More

I believe Larry Koopman passed away a few years back, he was in poor health.  I was able to get some rare Volume Indexes from him before he stopped dealing.

Larry, here is the direct link to the scans (8 covers) of the 'BirdWatcher Journal' that were provided to me courtesy of the late Jeffry Persons. He had wanted me to post them here on the 'Corner.
