Lost history

This past week saw visits by Tashi Shimada and his two associates from Japan (Kotaro and Moriyuki) working on research for a photo essay on the Angels of Light. I took them to the California Historical Society where they wanted to view the Free Print Shop and Kaliflower Collection. It was disappointing to see that the issues of Kaliflower (volume one) are out of order. For example, this page (below) is missing from Vol. 1/No. 34 so that anyone researching the Angels of Light would not be aware that the same issue had full page introductions for both the Cockettes and the Angels of Light. This is how Lost History Happens.
