Karen Kuykendall
Hello, did anyone ever cross paths with the early Third Reich collector and noted author Karen Kuykendall in the 1960s-70s? She lived in the southwest US, San Diego and then in Arizona.
She authored several articles in an early German monthly collectors phamplet called Das Hanken Krueze about 1966 and many others. Here is her archive:

1923-1982
She was ahead of her time. Best, Bill Bourque

Sadly before my time. I've never heard of her.
She certainly seems to have donated a lot to the university. Doesn't look like any of it is online/scannned.
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Hello, a fellow collector here in the US actually has saved Der Hanken Kruez issues from the mid 1960s. As far as I know it was the earliest German collectors monthly, 1966. Karen Kuykendall pens a couple of articles. I always liked the the wolf. Best, Bill Bourque
Here are follow up photos from her archives. It’s easy to see the bent sword. It appears to have had left Cross damage? Best, Bill
Hello, more pics from her archives. These fine items were in her collection way back when. A photo of her in Arizona 1955. Best, Bill
Is she still with us o did she pass in 1982?
Hi, I believe she died in 1998. Bill
