Jen commented on Gay Mathis's blog post Color stereo photographs of San Francisco after '06 quake found
"One glimpse we can get of patterns and colors of the period is to look a quilts from that time frame. It seems that those patches came from somewhere."

Copyrights



While working on my own project over the last few years, I have had to familiarize myself with copyrights, particularly in the area of photographs. I thought I would pass along my findings here. Infringing on someone's true copyrights can be expensive and has likely derailed more than one project. It is up to the author to determine what isn't in or out of copyright for their own security.

Six Gun City Benefit

I posted a flyer in the Upcoming Events section about benefit for Six Gun City empolyees hosted by the Dragoon Saloon coming up on the 19th. For those who follow the comings and goings of those in the Town Too Tough To Die, I also want to send an attaboy out to the owners of The Longhorn, Cafe Margarite's and Big Nose Kates, Steve and Gloria Goldstein, for hosting a benefit on Sunday. It is great to see everyone pulling together to help those affected by the recent fire.

Tombstone Territory Rendezvous 2010

I have updated the information on this years's TTR schedule in the TW Upcoming Events area. I know many of you attended Helldorado, so a second trip this month is unlikely.

This is an event designed by/for historians, not reinactors (although they are welcome of course, but there are no shoot-em-up sessions or costumes). The link to…

OK Corral Inquest

For those who are interested in reading the original handwritten transcript, it is now available online. This is the Coroner's Inquest spoken of here on TW a few months ago, not the transcript of the Spicer Hearing. Those have not yet been found.
