Dear Gram,

How about getting some lists together of who needs which JIM notes by 


letter? I would like to improve my holding and perhaps I have some duplicates

I would trade for others needed. Might also be some new information

coming from individuals who may have seen previously unreported letters- like

the PI 1 peso PJ Specimen I saw some time ago (and did not get).

Neil
