It's true Dave. There is very little space for storage (I visited in
1998 to buy a Mint secondhand OM2N) and Ian isn't really an
archivist. He is the editor of the magazine and he runs the Olympus
Camera Club, probably on a shoestring from Olympus UK.
He is a nice enough chap, but he obviously does not get enough
resources or staff to do the collecting thing. I blame Olympus, we
normally do ;-).

Apologies to Ian Aston then. My fault! So there you go. I interpreted his
e-mail to me as a bit terse; maybe it was just _true_!
Another little example of misinterpreting e-mails from someone at a distance.
I will stand corrected.
