Mal,
Good to hear from you. \
We sure are sorry to lose our old friend Doug.
You have have heard, but I was able to acquire Doug's fabulous negative collection earlier this year. I intend to keep it in circulation as I do with all the collections I acquire.
As you requested, here is Doug's shot of Mich-Calif #4 at Camp 15 on September 5, 1941. He has lots more from the early 1940's.
Happy New Year Mal!
Martin
