Ventured to the Redwood City Public Library, about a 40 minute drive south from my apartment in San Francisco. I searched through microfilm of the Redwood City Tribune, where I found a few advertisements and brief articles related to local screenings of films featuring Louise Brooks. Local patrons, as it turns out, largely went to nearby Palo Alto or San Mateo to take in the latest offerings from Paramount, MGM, etc....
This last newspaper survey largely completes my three year survey of Bay Area publications. In summation, here is what I looked at and where I found it:
-- San Francisco Public Library (The Argonaut, Richmond Banner, San Francisco Bulletin, San Francisco Call and Post, San Francisco Call-Bulletin, San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco Examiner, San Francisco Daily News, The Marin and San Anselmo Herald)
-- Oakland Public Library (Oakland Tribune, Oakland Post-Enquirer)
-- University of California, Berkeley (Berkeley Daily Gazette, Contra Costa Gazette, Daily Californian, Oakland Morning Record, San Rafael Independent)
-- California State University, Hayward (Hayward Review, Hayward Daily Review, Oakland Free Press, San Leandro Reporter, Township Register)
-- San Mateo Public Library (San Mateo Times)
-- Stanford University (Daily Palo Alto, Palo Alto Times, Stanford Daily)
-- San Jose State University (Los Gatos Mail News, San Jose Evening News, San Jose Mercury Herald, San Jose Mercury News)
-- California State Library (Alameda Times-Star, Illustrated Daily Herald, Livermore Herald, Marin Journal, Santa Rosa Press Democrat)
