Wallace, it's great that this small piece of history was saved. I wonder if the films mentioned still exist.

 Dr. James T. Tanner was professor of Zoology at State Teachers
 College (now ETSU), and president of the Johnson City Chapter
 of the T0S in January 1942. Mrs. J. T. (Nancy) Tanner was on
 the faculty of the Department of Education at the college.  The
 above is a post card sent to members.
 
 Nancy Sheedy Tanner, who is in her 90s, lives at Knoxville, TN
 and is the last living person to have seen the Ivory-billed Woodpecker,
 as her husband died in 1991.  He was the foremost authority on
 the Ivory-billed Woodpecker, now thought to be extinct. Nancy says
 she went with her husband in 1941 to Louisiana and saw six of
 them.
