Click Here for image
11/09 note from Bill Uhrich – “To solve the previous owner’s mystery
name: it’s Earl W. Rollman. He was a Reading pastor who had a number of
classic ornithology texts, including Birds of Massachusetts – which I
saw at a Lancaster bookseller – Chestnut Street Books- several years ago.
I didn’t buy it because I already owned the set. I bought several of Rollman’s
books that I’d found in Lancaster bookstores, including Chapman’s Birds
of Eastern North America and Warblers of North America and Griscom’s Birds
of the New York City Region, which I have at my desk here and can confirm
the signature. He appeared to be more of an armchair ornithologist, for
he didn’t make any contributions to Berks records, as Poole’s 1947 A Half
Century of Bird Life in Berks County Pennsylvania does not list him as
a contributor among the bird students of the day. I am surprised at the
1947 date of the Bird Studies volumes, as the books of his I have are
dated from 1925 and 1926.
