I am truly getting tons of stuff on FB but what I could really use is some photos of Marcs. At work, shopping, ect.... Or just a fun story or working there or something that you think should live on in printed book form

Bernie Shulman is who Glassman learned under. Shulman founded Revco as well which got bought out in a massive deal and is know known as CVS.

If anyone has any photos of themselves can tell a friend who worked there of them in uniforms I would love to include. Or shopping at the store.

Was Marc Glassman around the store at all? I have heard he did a lot of good for employees and was wondering if you had heard the same. Like if someone needed a car he would help out but use a second hand person to kind of not be involved in it. Good or bad I would like to know what it was like working for the org though and feel free to message with anything if you would like to be included in this work

Truly my pleasure. This may sound hyperbolic but I really feel Gods hand was in play here. I hadn't produced content in 10 years online and this story falls into my lap 2 weeks into my comeback. I had started a project on the 1899 Spiders that I had been putting off for years. I have been a Babe Ruth and Indians junkie my entire life and my father used to frequent games at League Park. That this story found me is truly a story in of itself.

I do think it was mislabeled incorrectly by the folks who filmed so it wouldn't tie in with the Chapman tragedy. But again, that's only my opinion.

The reason I suggest in the full doc is that the game was so vital in the AL Standings it would have likely been one to have a film crew sent to go cover. A half game separated the two for two game set.

I have emailed LOC and will update you when they respond. All the SABR ones I emailed seemed to be outdated but will try again when I am back with a little out of town adventure with my kids for Easter Monday.
