Hi David...….

Opened up another box of books and found a roll of Microfilm.....
The box states:

Mike,

100/287 is an ideal roll for a Canadian QSA collector.

Do you have a reader too?

We relied on these from the UK, is was a "quick" 2 week process using the Postal service, and I would send an amount annually and Winnifred would efiiciently deduct the £5 off for every enquiry. Henk Loots also had a large number of the Rolls and also offered a verification service.
