Default Re: album with letters and picture

Char,
Second time to respond , my other response disappeared , you know the post that talks about Gord not texting , no cell phone , that's me . I can get the picture on the computer , attaching to post is the problem . I can get a kid to help when they are here.
The 8 x 10 glossy photo simply states Lightfoot at the bottom . My wife says the paper the letters are on reminds her of typing paper from that era . They are pale but feel thicker. We are debating Laurel signature if it is ink from a pen or a copy , leaning toward a copy . The folder is a real thick material glossy with a big picture of Gordon . You can tell they are old and certain the album and all is a set . One letter is simply titled bio . It is an interview with Gord , starts with talking bout growing up in Orillia , working at the laundry , off to school at Westlake , back to Toronto , met his wife , goes on for five pages. Here is an example , last two sentences , Gordon talking ," There are a lot of pretty songs on the third and fourth albums, but none of them is what you'd call a mainstream song. I'm trying to write songs that are both now , that are not only groovy but can also reach a lot of people." I will try to post pictures . Thanks , Dale
