You are lucky here, but I've combed college archives where I saw plenty of beautiful gag drawings and caricatures with no names attached. When Grim Natwick died he left a trunk of sketches by Milt and Marc Davis and Moore he collected over the years. But none of them were labelled, it's taken years of detective work to figure out who did what.<BR/><BR/> The MP Academy Margaret Herrick Library has an entire department dedicated to Home Movies. Someone in the '40s or 50s walked through a studio backlot with a Bell&Howell and shot some footage. After they died the family gives it to the academy. They now have three full time librarians who's only job is deciphering who is in the picture and what year it might be. So give a future historian a break and label your stuff now before you forget.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
