14 Sept 2004.  I have converted to black & white some of the PDF found in the my online library.  The Gentleman's Bottle Companion was originally greyscale at 300dpi.  It is now 600dpi black & white.  I will convert a few of the other large PDFs to black and white saving disk space and download time.

1911. Odum, Howard W. "Folk-Song and Folk-Poetry as found in the Secular Songs of the Southern Negroes," in: Journal of American Folklore, (1911), pp. 255-94 and 351-96.  Legman in his introduction of Randolph's "Unprintable" collection mentions this Odum article as worthy of being reissued.

4. I emailed the Canberra War Memorial to request a photocopy of an Australia songbook from 1942.
5. I received a call from Paul Smith formerly of Sheffield who is now in New Foundland that has a large collection of Xerox-lore.  We exchanged email addresses.  Perhaps we can trade rare ephemera.

2 August 2004.  I have been reading Randolph's Roll Me In Your Arms and Blow Out The Candle two volume set of "Unpublishable" songs from the Ozarks.   Legman's introduction to the lists several people who have important ephemera collection of Xerox-lore.  I called all the Paul Smith's in New Foundland.

1 August 2004.  I added links to the Gordon 'Inferno' Collection HTML page (355KB), the zipped version (85KB) of that page and a PDF version of the the page images (13.5MB).  Please note that the typescript of the manuscripts in the "Inferno" is itself incomplete.

28 July 2004.  I spent time "collating" the 'Inferno' Collection by creating hyperlinks from the Index to the actual texts.  I have found that one text, #249, is missing from my HTML version.

27 July 2004. 

1. I have finished OCRing the Gordon "Inferno" Collection.  I don't know if I can issue this collection on drinkingsongs.net.  I will need to contact the Library of Congress to ask what restrictions, if any, are on the collection.
2. I have placed up the mp3s and text, courtesy Michael Brown in NZ, of the 45 record The I's Reunion Record.  This record gives a New Zealand perspective on rugby and a Kiwi spin to the bawdy songs.  Unusual songs on the record are Dan, Dan The Lavatory Man and Who Is Sylvia?

26 July 2004.  I am producing a CD of bawdy field recordings from my collection to be distributed at the NY bawdy songs session by Ed Cray.

25 July 2004.  I finished scanning the Gordon "Inferno" Collection typescript at 600dpi. I have made a PDF of the scans for private reference.   I suspect that some of the pages are missing and that the typescript was incompletely copied from the manuscript letters.

23 July 2004.  Received a copy of the Gordon "Inferno" Collection typescript courtesy Abby Sale.  I will by scanning in this important collection and making a PDF of the collection but not issuing it to the net because of uncertain copyright issues.

7 July 2004.  I have been informed by Dr. Scheiner that not all 1st Editions of The Horn Book have the Warren's Olde Style watermark.  

5 July 2004.  Correspondence with Dr. Scheiner has led me to believe that the reduced 4to that Legman attributes to "Nathan Young and Robert Sterling" was actually done by Samuel Roth.  This is because Roth consistently used red construction paper on his non-bawdy Farrar titles.

3 July 2004.  Made a field recording of R.G. "Sandy" Humphrey.  I am currently backlogged with processing field recordings and don't know when I will get a chance to break it up into individual songs.

20 June 2004.  While reading Legman's 1964 The Horn Book I discovered the Warren's Olde Style watermark in the paper.  This is the same watermark that is found in the 1st edition of Immortalia.  I passed this info on to Dr. Cliff Scheiner a Brooklyn, NY erotica dealer.  We are currently testing to see if other books published by University Books were published with this watermark.

12 June 2004.  I have further revised my Immortalia bibliography and have included many more photos of typographical errors and other variations.
