USBC update?

[Copperhead]

Was just wondering if anyone knew if photos were still being accepted for the flat/cone top suppliment for Vol1? Sent a few pics of some cans not listed and have not gotten any response from any of the three people I sent photos to. Have more cans to photograph but if no more pics are being accepted, I won't waste my time photographing them. Copperhead

Chip,

I did receive them. Bruce Gregg is the lead for the project, and I believe he is on vacation.

In any event, John Page or Bruce will probably provide a bunch of advice regarding getting the pictures exactly right. I know it took a while before they were happy with what they were getting from Eric Claussen.

At the very least, you are providing a service with respect to identifying cans that need to be added. Jim Wolf should have a locked and loaded photo box by the end of the year, and he can start taking pictures of cans in east coast collectors hands. I know I have a *bunch* of cans (mostly tabs) that aren't in the books.

Thanks Al!

Part of your question insinuates that they will only be taking updates for a while. I thought the digitization of the book would allow for updates as they come in whenever. Is that not the case?

Thanx.

Jerry,

Beacuse it is an online project, the USBC update will never truly be finished. At some point, there will be a major push to get *most* of the new variations and upgrades photographed, but there is no doubt that additional variations will continue to be discovered.
