[GreenKeys] TTY posters wanted

[Duncan Brown]

Ed,

Roger on keeping originals in the dark!  We have a B-sized scanner and I 
have used that for some originals, but didn't know that Fed Ex/Kinkos 
offered large scanning service. If I find anything large, i'll get it 
scanned and send  you a copy.

Have fun,

Duncan
