    Great stuff like always. You can never get enough faux panelage =D

    7th picture down, with the Patricia Schroeder Congresswoman campaign poster. I did a little digging and found this tidbit on the Wiki:

    “In 1972, Schroeder won election for Congress in Colorado’s first district, based in Denver, over freshman Republican incumbent Mike McKevitt. At age 32, Schroeder is the second-youngest woman ever elected to that body. “

    She began office on January 3, 1973. So I’m guessing that she’d just won, or was about to win, when that picture was taken…?

    Weird…I read just a little bit more, and found this:

    “Interestingly enough, she found out years later that during that very first congressional campaign, the FBI had had her and her staff under surveillance. The bureau had paid a man named Timothy Redfern to break into her home, and she also noticed that someone had been rifling through her car’s glovebox.”

    Second to last picture …see how huge that Mazinger Z looks next to that kid? That’s the way I felt when I beheld my Gaiking. =)

    Fantastic photos. Man, what I wouldn’t give to sit cross-legged on our sculpted green carpeting playing Atari one more time.
