A note from Kip
and Darlene Lewis
The Altoona Mirror newspaper gave great coverage of the Curve
throughout the season.
They have a web site, and these reports were also included there,
BUT
they only gave the headline followed by the opening paragraph
and then 'suggested' that the rest of the article can be seen
in the printed copy.
THIS WAS NO GOOD
TO US!!!
Before the season started I put
a note on one of the Pirates' Message Boards asking if anyone
would be prepared to collect all the papers during the year and
post them over on a fortnightly basis.
Kip and Darlene
answered,
and we were able to read every edition of the Mirror, from Opening
Day through to the final game!!!
It was great!!!
I was able to copy/scan the photos and articles where Brett was
included,
and these excerpts appear in lots of places throughout these Curve
pages.
