The preferred way to submit a short snorter for archiving in the virtual museum is
to send an email with attached digital images (JPEG format) of both the front and
back sides of the short snorter. Flatbed scans are best (approx 800 DPI) as this
will not allow for any distortion of notes that will not otherwise lay flat. I have the
ability to rotate and crop images so that is not a concern.
Email scans to:
tjsparks@shortsnorter.org
Alternatively, you could mail the short snorter and I will scan it for you, post the
digital images to the virtual museum, and return it to you within 7 days. You
would have to include a stamped, self-addressed envelope for the return.
Contact me at the above email address and we can coordinate mailing.
Lastly, Include any information you have about the signatures on the short
snorter. Include names, ranks, squadrons, web links, etc. The more information
the better. I will eventually add these names to the "Roll Call" pages.

My name is Tom Sparks
and I became interested in
short snorters after reading
Michael Marotta's article
in the 2002 Numismatist
I have memberships in the
following organizations:
Everett Coin Club
Pacific Northwest
Numismatic Association
American Numismatic
Association
Encased Collectors
International
My uncle, Kenneth Sparks,
was an Army Air Corps B-17
bomber-navigator in WWII.
(He has a short snorter.......)
My friend, George Grimm,
was a U.S. Navy Transport
pilot in WWII and introduced
me to "The Ultimate Short
Snorter"...
Another friend, Art Unruh,
flew 50 missions as a
gunner in B-17 bombers
during WWII. Art is this
months featured veteran...
I also participate in the
eBay community and will
frequently run an auction.
