I have put up my entire collection of Argentine Departmentals showing all the missing ones. It's hard to believe how many are still unavailable to me considering I have been collecting them for about 25 years. During a visit to BsAs in '85 I bought a collection of some 70 of them and have been chasing after them ever since. They are not expensive but for some reason some are hard to find. The last time I added a new one was about 4 years ago. I even have a dealer in Bahía Blanca keeping a lookout for me with a want list - and now, blog-pages - and still I don't seem to be getting anywhere.

Would be interesting to exchange experience regarding these "ministerials".

In another Argentina thread, I mentioned the dead circuit books I perused a bit ago. They were loaded with these, unused and used. I very briefly started out with a Scott Classic and pulled them out as I went along, but I quickly decided it would be a month-long project, so I grabbed a representative sampling here and there and called it a day. I'm not that wedded to any of them, so if you have a list of what you're missing, I'd look.

I glanced at the blog, but I didn't see a summary of what you're missing.

Hi Collin.

You beat me to it. I am in the process of creating a "Summary of Missing" page even as we speak.
It will be placed right after the INTRO page.

I really like what you've done. I'm in the same boat. I've been trying to put together a whole collection of these for a very long time. I can't even begin to tell you how many thousands of these I have screened for the ones I'm missing but I'll see what I might have that will help you out. If I have some, I'll let you know and maybe you can help me out with some I'm missing. My only misgiving is that we'll probably have the same holes.
