Looking for Collections to Visit / Book Query
By Colin Hinz
It looks like I will be on the [North American] west coast for most of a week in early November, with my time split up between Vancouver, Seattle and Portland, Oregon. I am wondering if there are any noteworthy collections to check out while I was there. Ord-Hume makes reference to a collection at the Buchardt Gardens in Victoria, BC, but this source of info is effectively a quarter of a century old. Is it still around? (And if it is, is it even open to the public???)
Unrelated to this, I have been trying without success to get ahold of Bowers' enormous "Encyclopedia...". The bookstore I ordered it thhrough stated that Vestal has no stock. (They also said that Vestal is the most slothful publisher they've dealt with recently.) Anybody out there know of a source?
