Old SWL Cards and books
When I was young, in about 1965, my father got stationed in alaska and
at the same time I was given an old hellicrafters swl radio. Being in alaska, we were very close to europe and I received SWL cards from most of the countries that were there. I threw them all into a box and after looking at them just recently, a lot of the countries don't even exsist anymore. I also was sent a large package from the former soviet union (radio moscow) with pictures of their country and trying to tell me how great their country was. I probably got this because my dad was in the Air Force and they noticed the Air Force Base Return address. Of course he was really mad when we got this propaganda package but he let me keep it. My question is: where is the best place to DONATE all the SWL cards and flags and pennants that I got thru the mail way back then? I will not use them but I hate to see them go to waste. I know there must be some really good place that would want them and at the same time other people might have access to them. If anybody knows a site that is really good at taking care of the items and making sure they can be seen by others, please forward me an email so I can get in contact with them. I can remember staying up many late nights waiting for some of these small stations to go off the air so I can find out their addresses and send them requests for SWL cards. Most of the time, I always got a response. But sometimes it took a couple letters to get them to send the cards. My email address is: and any information would be very much appreciated........ TED |
