Hi Chris--
Ages ago (early eighties) there was a thoroughly derelict O-47 sitting in bits in the outdoor storage area at the USMC museum at Quantico VA. Not sure if this is the one that ended up at PoF or not--but there sure aren't many around.
Walter Soplata had a Curtiss O-52 Owl in his collection at one time; ultimately it and parts of another wound up on offer through Courtesy Aircraft and went to a private restorer.
