Quest for 1971 State Fair poster

i spent about 2 hours at the state library and archives looking for the 1971 state fair, but no luck. I fear I will no be able to find it. phooey.

I will make some phone calls tomorrow in the am and see if any one has any idea.

but for now I will be working on the language bit of the presentation.

Friday ३/12

So today and at other points this week, of which i cant remember,I have been doing research online and I think i went to the library on thursday....

Library - helpful, considering i had yet to go to the Sacramento Public library since i've moved here. however what i was looking for was not what i found, so i have continued looking.

I've searched and called a few places and now e-mailed, attempting to get a hold of the 1971 state fair poster/advertisement. hopefully this pulls through, but if not We still have the documentation. =)

lets seee.... I met with Dr. Castaneda today to go over where i was at and what needed to be competed. I feel i have a better understanding of what is to be done. Hurray! also petrus and i and Dr.C spoke about all of the little bits and peices that we are attempting to put together and i really understand how great it is that this class gets to do it. =)

and i spent about a half hour in the CSUS library looking for/at the Sac Hornet and amazingly found 2 articles in the first book i opened about mendocino hall and the museum! hawoo! (haha im leaving that because i corrected myself when it was spelled correctly to be spelled that way.

and i think on that note, im done for the evening.

time: about 4 hours?

extension of Monday

The trip to the special collections was fun, looking at the history of CSUS, however they did not have campus maps, or anything of that nature there; thus the hunt continues. but I managed to get a nice picture of Dr. Reeve and Dr. Crane (again I dont remember why I needed him, but his name was in my notes).

My drawing of team 3's portion of the exhibit is not super great and it's kinda small, but hopefully people will get the point =) and I started to place how things may end up looking on the board. but for now im done for the evening.


Time: 2 hours

monday Morning

This morning, I got up early and bought a poster board, glue sticks, and ink for my printer. Then spent two hours deliberating over what is supposed to go on it.

I cropped photos of tags, found pictures of Dr. Reeve and Dr. Benson (which I cant remember if I needed that or not) from pictures of the history of archeology at csus.

I hadn't heard from my team over the weekend, so I am working off of just what was discussed at our meeting on friday.

For today I plan to print some things out to place on the board, as well as, draw up how I think our portion of the museum will flow. Also I will be leaving for school early to stop in at the special collections to work out where the anthro dept/ museum artifacts have traveled around the campus. \


That is all for now.

Time 2.5 hours

Team meeting

Team 3 met with Dr Castaneda today and got the ball rolling for what we are supposed to be doing.

Im pretty excited about it. I have already drawn up some plans for the portion of the museum display, as well as, found some points that will be needing more research.

One question that perhaps Dr. Castaneda or Amanda can answer is when some of the items were on display at Cal Expo? The library may have a poster from that event or a flier. that may be neat to include in the display.

Also if available the poster/card from when some items were on display in 2002?
is this the exibit?

I attempted to go to the special collections in the CSUS library today, but they are on furlough so I will try again on monday. But I do feel that is the place to go to find where all of the museums collections have been moved around the anthro dept. until its current place in Mendocino hall. Spent some time searching online for news articles about the renovations at sac state. I hope to take a look a them at the library at some point this weekend.

that is all for now.

Time 3.5 hours

Carl Purdy

Also in regard to Carl Purdy,

I do plan on actually researching him this week, hopefully. I apologize for the delay.

Rather uneventful week

While Laura and I did complete our Deed of Gifts assignment, that seems to be the bulk of what I did for this class this week aside from the readings.

Along with meeting up with Laura and the following research I probably spent a little over 2 hours putting it together. and I think I had a bit more fun doing it than I thought I would.

Total Lab hours: 2.5
