My source material for the posts comes from the books and pamphlets that I have collected, or from library research. The Los Angeles Public Library and the UCLA libraries are invaluable tools. I also scour the internet for information.
I’ve taken all of the photos of the items in my collection, and I used Microsoft Access to create a database to catalog everything.
This bibliography is a work in progress.
