Hello All, I bought these books today at an estate auction. The Bill Jordan book has personal message to a Tom Bell inside. Is Tom Bell someone of importance? Thanks in advance. Boats

Looks like “Jan” not “Tom”. Either way I’m no help.

Nature photographer Jan Bell maybe? Several of his photos were used in outdoor mags back in the '80's and '90's.

Bill Jordan would autograph his book upon request. He even autographed my copy.
