Default Red Sox Ramblings 1940's team newsletter questions

So I had the good fortune to acquire a large lot of vintage Sox and Ted Williams items which included a lot of "Red Sox Ramblings" newsletters. These newsletters run from 1940-42 (vol 1-3) and 1946-47 (vol 4-5). Each year there are 4 or 5 newsletters. The gap years 1943-45 coincide with Ted's WWII leave.

I have the following issues by year:
1940 1,2,4,5
1941 1-5
1942 1-4
1946 1-4
1947 1-5

As you can see, I am missing 1940 Vol 1, Issue 3. Does anyone know if such issue actually exists? Also, any possibility that there is a volume 5 from 1942 and/or 1946?

The Hall of Fame has a partial collection too in their periodical section, but this is more limited than my collection- https://collection.baseballhall.org/...-sox-ramblings

Thanks in advance for any information you might have.

....I cannot even tell you how different the writing style is on these than current/modern language.

As an example there is an offer for autographed pictures, which I suspect are the team sets. "They make grand pictures for dens and rumpus rooms."

Rumpus rooms???

Anyone have any further info. on these?

I still get a laugh thinking of the "rumpus room"......

......but more serious questions abound.....

Are these that rare that no one knows anything more about them? I've infrequently found some single issues but not a whole lot of information seems to exist on these newsletters.
