I would like to list here the sources of scans of missing portions, as for now, boesp and pwk, but also any other material relevant to the Cologne Sanskrit Lexicon project.
@funderburkjim, please move/copy this issue to any other better place.

I start with commenting on @Andhrabharati's posting of a scan of Boehtlingk's 2 supplements to boesp
by copying the relevant part from sanskrit-lexicon/PWG/issues/37:

And then, got the full volumes from a japanese site! As the full volume sizes are big (~50MB), searched further and got the individual articles from a russian site (www.orientalstudies.ru).

And here are the Boethlingk's supplements to Indische Spruche-

Melanges_Asiatiques_08_1877_08_boehtlingk.pdf

And finally, a list of Boethlingk's works compiled by Salemann & Oldenburg, for reference.

@Andhrabharati

I had a closer look at the scans after downloading them and find them suitable, if not perfect, for typing.
(Black and White compressed derivations of colour/grey scale scans are usually good enough for reading but not so for keyboarding. If any new scans are made they should be in grey scale and have a resolution of not less than 300dpi)

I refer to the two supplements as boesp4-1 and boesp4-2
Whereas boesp4-1 contains only corrections and additions to the existing 7613 sprueche
boesp4-2 contains also 251 additional items, conveniently numbered 7614-7865

I calculate the size of both parts (50 pages) at 81KB (give or take 10%) and they have to be (and will be) digitized to complete the boesp work.

I agree very much on this.
Just like to say that these were scanned by someone else and are available on the internet for downloading.

And glad to presume that you would be digitizing these pages soon.

any other material relevant to the Cologne Sanskrit Lexicon project

I would like to suggest adding 2 pages of Schlusswort in Schmidt's NACHTRÄGE, if not done already and lying somewhere (It is not at the csl-doc area as of now).

@thomasincambodia -- The cologne-issue-363 (link above) is my response. -- I see that you (in cologne-issue-362) were also thinking cologne repository a good place for this.
