Default any old engine dudes in this group?

I have one of the two copies described below left - note SES = Stationary
Engine Society, which was merged into ISSES in the mid 90s

what I have is a two sided photocopy of the SES newsletters from vol 1
issue
1 through vol 5 issue 1 and the engine database - they are good
photocopies
but they are not bound, just sheets of paper. My friend had these copies
made in May of 1990, they are very good quality copies. His receipt says
$54.19 for 423 pages at 12 cents per page, so I am just presuming that
one
copy is half of that, though it's hard to know how to divide 423 by two,
isn't it. There is a nice cover and separator printed on colored paper.

Anyway, I would like to help my friend recover his costs, so one copy is
1/2
of $54.19 plus shipping - I think the best shipping is the USPS flat rate
envleope ($5) - so that would mean $32.10 total with shipping for one
copy.
I think this is fair, but feel free to make me an offer if you can use
this material



if you are interested, please contact me at william_ b_ noble at m s n

Hm, I think that we should open "American Stationary Steam Engine
Society", or ASSES.

I would like to meet some elderly aficionados of elderly stationary engines,
especially those whose memories are not yet failing.

there are a few still around, some of who remember stuff, but they are
fading fast- a good starting point is the society I mentioned

I'm a member in an International Conchologist Societies - a Shell group -
members are from Universities and museums as well as researchers and collectors.
I'll give a speech at the Yearly meeting this year.

Some of the regional or sectional clubs - have really scandalous sounding
names. ASSES is along in the style. They are full of PHD's and such -
and have a good sense of humor outside of work!

Least I can go out and blast something without having to step on something.
An upside is shell food post collecting...
