Gents,

Picked up a pretty rare bird recently, a P.I. scrapbook from a Marine who did a lot of port of calls around the Orient for 4 years 1905-09, Quantico would like to take a look at it and I'd like to use thier big scanner for a Ebook, but until then here is a sample on the link below.

Best Regards,

Bob

If you ever decide to get rid of it, keep the Naval Reference Library in mind, please.

BTW, I have an A3 scanner here.
