Yes I would really be interested in having them for my collection, which, by the way, is outgrowing its' current digs and in need of a new "home". I have been looking for some new storage boxes at various stores while out shopping with my wife, but haven't yet found the right size and/or shape. I now have them housed in two plastic bins, one for duplicates (for trading ?) and one organized by region/state for the bulk of the collection. This is somewhat an esoteric hobby; I have only found one other local birder to trade with. He travels very widely and so has many to share. I travel very infrequently and so mostly have duplicates from others. I find the various checklists fun to look at, interesting in their variety, and occasionally someone will contact me to see if I can provide them with a list of birds to a park/region that they are planning a trip to ( a rather unique service I can provide). If you'd like I will reimburse you for the postage. My mailing address is : Rick Sussman 17917 Ashton Club Way Ashton,MD 20861-9717 Thanks again for thinking of me! I appreciate it...
