$26 ($25 plus $1 postage) to the Germantown Historical Society for 10 copies
is, as I've said before, an outrageous sum to pay for something that costs
$1.00 at the FLP or $1.50 at other libraries. If you need just a copy or
two why not just ask for a look-up on this list? If you need more, why not
ask for a look-up and offer to pay someone on this list? Or, ask if a
researcher ($10-15/hour plus copying & postage)
would do it. In any case, the Germanown Historical Society is the most
expensive route to take.
