The speaker at our March 2008 meeting was Ken Launie, member of the Amateur Telescope Makers of Boston and long time friend of Skyscrapers. Ken is a well known collector and expert on antique telescopes and also a collector of rare astronomy books and ephemera. Ken gave a presentation about collecting astronomical ephemera, including a large sampling of his observatory postcard collection. Members also displayed some of their collections of astronomically themed items.
