This had a few unusual strains but nothing rare .
Kent Whealys book lists sources for : Texas gourd seed corn , Hastings prolific corn , another corn that fully matures in 40 days . It lists all know non hybrid sees in U.S.A. and Canada . Much better! do you know any of the sources of these strains ?

FF,

"It lists all known non-hybrid seeds in U.S.A. and Canada. Much better! Do you know any of the sources of these strains ?"

The Garden Seed Inventory book that you referenced, a publication of the link that I posted, is now in its sixth edition, and the book lists the seed sources, many of which are available from the Seed Savers Exchange itself.
