After 15 years of working diligently on the Little Blue Book Bibliography with the help of his daughters, Jake completed this labor of love the year before he died. He was able to attend the 100th anniversary of Little Blue Books in Kansas IN 2019 and speak about his work there with kindred spirits. His family is completing his vision of donating his collection to libraries around the country so there are more complete sets of this historically significant collection.
