I'll start looking through old newspapers, bent on finding a particular event or reference, and before you know it, I'm reading the ads and all the other little articles. It's wonderful! Like sifting through a pile of bright shiny objects (ooooh! Look at that!).<BR/>Hi Cheryl ... I know, there's a real sense of loss. I'm actually thinking of getting a couple more subscriptions (!), maybe to the Denver Post and the Boulder Camera, if they do out-of-state.Ann Parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13177732952658080784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565536117447494278.post-40919346346935632222009-03-04T20:18:00.000-08:002009-03-04T20:18:00.000-08:00I was saddened to hear of this too.

While I am one of those bad people who rarely picks up a paper because online news is so much easier, it's a shame to hear of this paper's closing.<BR/><BR/>CherylCherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03470069911115912344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565536117447494278.post-64816519618159511622009-03-04T07:56:00.000-08:002009-03-04T07:56:00.000-08:00I, too, have wondered what future researchers will...I, too, have wondered what future researchers will have available to understand our time period. Old newspapers are such a rich treasure and searchable digitized newspapers that I can read online have become addictive. I start out focused on my subject and often get sidetracked reading other stories that pull me back into another era. <BR/><BR/>Cynthia Becker<BR/>Author of Chipeta: Ute Peacemaker<BR/>http://chipeta.wordpress.comCynthia S.

I recall seeing this paper when I was a kid living in CO, and then later when I was in college and wondering about the illustration business, having an informative correspondence with their art director at the time.
