I would suggest looking at this page: http://www.aip.org/history/newsletter/fall2001/astronomy.htm Where there is an E-mail contact forAlfredo Tiomno Tolmasquim, Information and Documentation Coordinator, History of Science Archive at the Museum of Astronomy and Related Sciences in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. If anyone would know or be able to put you on the right track, I would think he would.FF
