Okay, these take some explaining: When I was compiling material for the book, "Glory Days at Delaware," I knew that back issues of The Review would be a primary source of UD '87 - '07 historical info... ...but The Review's online archives only go back so far. So, I ended up making a special trip down to UD for a few d...ays, to do research. UD has an archive room, in the basement of Pearson Hall; upon request, you can rifle through their bound volumes of The Review, yearbooks, etc. My intention was to make photocopies of the specific Review pages I needed, but that was going way to slow, on limited time. So, what I ended up doing, was I'd just hover over the newspapers, and take shots of them with my digital camera...like I was f'in James Bond or something. Anyway, it worked out great, and I was able to go back and "read" the pages on my computer screen... ...so here are some (but nearly not all!) of the Review research shots I took!

This was either Halloween '93 or '94, when my friend Monica was doing an internship or something for the Newark Business Association... ...for kids, they put together a Halloween Coloring Book, to promote the local (Main Street) businesses. I drew these three pages for it...I think the gig paid twenty bucks.
