I should have found your Blog long ago.<br />I am researching "The Hall Room Boys" in an effort to strengthen my sketchy evidence that HAZEL POWELL changed her name to HAZEL HOWELL about the time she left HAROLD LLOYD. This led me to your FABULOUS Blog and your Journal of about Sept of 2015.<br />Further reading led me to the rise of the comedy feature and eventually "Skirts". The more you know, the more you find out you DON'T know. I couldn't stop reading.<br />Your research with references, photos, newspaper snips, generous links (and credit) to other researchers sets the "GOLD STANDARD" for silent film aficionados.(And you are so willing to share it.)<br />The "thing" that sets you apart is your writing style. As I read, you are sitting across the table talking to me like we've known each other for years. You'll state a lot of facts and a question will "pop into my head" and the next thing I know, you are answering it as if you are reading my mind!<br />Your article on eggs in comedy reminded me of the STAN LAUREL solo film, "The Egg" (1922). I've been looking for his female lead, DRIN MORO. I have about 70% confidence that I've found her (only about 60% confidence that HAZEL POWELL is HOWELL).<br />Compared to you, I'm a piker of a researcher!<br /><br />I don't know how many years it will take to catch up but you've got me "hooked" and I'll be going back to your first article and reading them all.<br />You are such a joy to read.<br />JARVIS----Chicagohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00813496148481916767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154292810213123565.post-8377000084721546722016-09-02T22:15:40.756-07:002016-09-02T22:15:40.756-07:00Please pardon my ignorance, Mr.BALDUCCI!
