To the LOC

I leave for Washington D.C. in eight days. I am very excited. Because, in less than 10 days time I will be hunkered down at the Library of Congress pouring over their massive collection of newspapers on microfilm. I've prepared an extensive checklist of papers I hope to look through. And, if I'm lucky, I may also look through bound issues of certain newspapers not on microfilm. And, I am also very excited that I was able to secure an appointment to view the surviving reels of The Street of Forgotten Men, Louise Brooks' first film. More to come. . . .
