I dated a girl who was a Salinger fanatic, she read the unpublished stories in the University of Washington library I think. Had to do it under guard. There have been bootleg publications of these stories - I saw a copy for a grand in a used bookstore in Phoenix about 15 years ago. From what I understand they were all published in magazines back in the 50s and 60s - but Salinger tried to supress those magazines even going so far as having them torn out from library copies.
