Dwight, if you have time could you look for 10118. I picked this camper up a few weeks ago in hopes of bringing it back to life. I have found a few clues that lead me to think it has spent a lot of time in the South /South East.
Thanks Bob

That explains the Florida certification stickers on it. I’m trying to put together a short story of where it’s been and who had it kind of like a family tree. Found some dog tags for Larry Harrelson I need to send back. A picture with the title ‘Leaf River Forest Products start up team’ showed 6 guys in front of a cabin. That company started in 1977 and was sued for dumping in the Leaf River in the 80’s. I think she’s seen a lot in her life on the road. Don’t get this kind of history buying a new white box camper.
Thanks for checking!
Bob

Dwight, if you don't mind looking up #7723, which was on my 1960 safari seven years ago when I got her. Thanks, Hope

In my 1964 directory 7723 was assigned to Charles and Lottie Sanders from Ohlman, IL. This directory has a CP before their name, but I do not know what that stands for.

You are correct.
The 'c' indicates a Wally Byam Caravan Club member
The 'p' indicates a courtesy parking space is available for fellow Airstreamers.

If you are in the directory then you have to be in the club. Cp is probably courtesy parking. Jim

In 1964 there were two classifications. It was the Wally Byam "Caravanners" and "Club" members. Most listings had either C or CP before their names but some did not have anything. I presume these were the Caravanners but not members of WBCC. I have seen one combined magazine that was printed back to back with one half printed upside down so it appeared there were two front covers depending on how you held it. One was the Caravanner the other The Blue Beret.

My take on this is:
CP stands for Courtesy Parking.
C indicates Co-owner (two, or more, members owning the same trailer or motorhome.) If you cross-reference the membership #'s you will often find multiple (usually two) parties listed for that membership number. However, this doesn't always seem to be the case in the current Directory. So...maybe this is not correct?

Definitions changed in the WBCCI Directories over the years . . .
1955 and 1956:
No designations, all caravanners listed, but club members not uniquely identified.
1957 to 1970:
C = Club Member
P = Parking for fellow Airstreamers
therefore . . .
CP = Club members with parking for fellow Airstreamers
Blank = Caravanner that was not a club members
1971 and 1972 (no designation of parking at all and "C" changed):
C = Caravanner, an Airstream owner that has been on an Airstream Wally Byam Caravan, but who is NOT a club member
therefore . . .
Blank = Club Member (forever after)
1973 to 1979 (parking was back):
C = Caravanner, an Airstream owner that has been on an Airstream Wally Byam Caravan, but who is NOT a club member
CP = Courtesy Parking
1980 to current (caravanners who were NOT club members were dropped):
CP = Courtesy Parking

Thanks Joe for the words of wisdom. It seems things evolve over time. It is good we have a club historian.
