In the 1990s – early – I had it in mind to write a history of the Ave. It developed into an unpublished narrative for which I handled the years through World War Two and Walt Crowley took it from there. He was then working on his personal memoire of the 1960s – published by the U.W. Press – and so was primed well to write modern Ave. history. The little book, however, was never published. The forces behind it either expired and/or fled. Here Laura V. helps with both soliciting “informants” and selling books and videos. That is, indeed, the old VHS version of Seattle Chronicle on the table next to Seattle Now and Then Vol. 2. For quite a few years we were part of that fair – and the one in Fremont too.
