Where All This Information Came From
This website is the result of a large number of people in the
watch collecting community who have pitched in to help. I am very
thankful for all this help, I have learned a lot from these
people.
The following is a list contributors (in alphabetical order). I'm
afraid that I have almost certainly forgotten some people or some
of the things people have contributed to me. If you know about
any errors or omissions, please let me know!

Elgin Master Records

That's me! I've writen up an
"About Me"
web page for those who think that it might be interesting to
read about me talking about myself.
- Kent Singer
-
Kent has provided me with so many scans that I can't really
list them all. He has sent me literally hundreds of scans.
Some sections of the Documents
and Pictures portion of the website are filled almost
completely with scans sent to me by Kent. When you seen
pictures that is marked with things like "Courtesy NAWCC
Library", "Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen's Magazine", or
"Courtesy of Catherwood Library", they are usually from
Kent.

Many of the scans that Kent Singer sent me were really
collected by both Ed and Kent and without Ed's effort, Kent
couldn't have sent me anywhere near as much stuff.
