I was in my 20's when my dad passed away and we donated literally thousands of original photos, newspapers, manuals, airplane parts, models, etc, etc to some of his so called 'friends' who later sold everything off for a profit. Some of them kept them but most sold them off which was truly unfortunate as this was an incredible collection that should have been kept together. Two of my dads original paintings went to the Minnesota Air National Guard Museum in St. Paul. I tried desperately to get them back or have prints made but they would not let me. I will try and find my photos of his paintings and post them. I still have one of a squadron of B17's taxing for take off but I want the flight of ANG P51's and F-102 Delta Daggers that he painted. </div></div>

My parents gave (with the stipulation of receiving prints, which never happened) a large quantity of 5 x 8 glass Negatives from the late 1800's early 1900's which were of the Greenville South Carolina area to the historical society in the late 70's.
