Photo Collections
We need to say a very special thanks to several members of
our community that have made their collections of band handouts and photos
available for display. Although many of these images are also incorporated under
the appropriate heading in the main galleries, they are presented here, by
contributor for your enjoyment. Please join us in thanking these kind people and
keep in mind, many of these photos have been in their possession for over forty
years!
If you have a collection that you would like to donate, we
require only that you have at least twenty images to qualify for your own
collection, and they must be representative of a variety of bands. We also want to assure you that all photographs are now clearly
identified with the contributor's name clearly printed on the image itself! So,
if you only have a couple of handouts, were will clearly label them and we join the
rest of the website's visitors in thanking you sincerely for helping make this a
better archive and "the most comprehensive collection anywhere!"
