Hi, Lu If the library has the Polk section of the Document Preservation Project I would love to have copies of the "Brewster/Isbell Papers", Microfilm # SHC-156. I'm sure there's likely to be lots more in the project, but this is the only one about which I have specific knowledge, and curiosity about what is in those papers is about to kill me! Thank you again for your offer -- wish I was headed to that part of the country myself!
