I just stumbled across your blog while doing research on Lil Hardin Armstrong.<br /><br />I'm putting together a book, "African Americans in Chicago" for Arcadia Publishing. And I need photos and graphic materials. You seem to have some. Please reply to me at lowellt@hotmail.com and I'll tell you more.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Lowell Thompson<br />http://buythecover.comLowellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01006707615260555391noreply@blogger.com
