Collection of VERY rare 1950 UFO newsletters (USA) completed, thanks to someone going to a local library

4 years ago, I made scans of most issues of the _RARE_ Grand Rapids Flying Saucer Club's newsletter "UFORUM" (1950s, USA) freely available online - with thanks to Barry Greenwood for the scans.

At that time, Issues 1 to 3 were missing from the huge UFO archives of both the AFU and Barry Greenwood (and every other UFO archives with whom I cooperate...).

Today, Bradley W Plaisier (@bpleasies on Twitter) filled in those gaps after he stopped by the Grand Rapids public library while he was in town and using his mobile phone to take images of those issues.

The collection of "UFORUM" is therefore now complete and in my online folder for UFO magazines / newsletters from the USA.

Many gaps in UFO research could be filled relatively quickly and easily if a few more people were willing to go to specific archives / libraries (particularly in the USA) to take a some photos of relevant correspondence, UFO documents and rare UFO newsletters...

AI has helped identify gaps. Now just need to fill them.
