Fred, if you do not have the setup to scan these sheets, I am sure that we
can find a lister local to you who can scan them and handcarry them back to
you. Once files are created, you can keep the originals safe and carry
paper copies around to all the shows. Meanwhile, electronic copies can be
sent to anyone who requests them.
