Jim is doing a great job with a huge project. The retyping of the weekly charts is not only time consuming, but if he is working with anything other than original copies, what a nightmare. Most of the CFUN charts from 1962 thru 1964 were only printed in The Province each week. I've spent time at the library intending to xerox copies from the microfilm....not an easy job. The film VPL has is so scratched and in such bad shape, I never tackled it.

Keep up the great work on the site Jim!

And it's 40 cents a copy, too.

One of the bonuses of the CFUN and CKLG charts you could pick up in the music stores was a different picture of a jock every week. It'd be fun to have those scanned, too.
