What a lovely feature. The video, animation and information. Just perfect.

That lady judge who'd give the sentence of "50 years or so" (with chance of parole) to Leopold and Loeb is so liberal... This is disgusting.

First of all and above all, I applaud and thank all of those involved in the Mister Kelly's exhibit at Newberry, which deserves a permanent home in some form somewhere. I've visited the exhibit 3 times and have recommended it to friends locally and internationally and to colleagues in the tour business. │ That said, one egregious error which I noticed only recently needs to be called out. The Playboy Club was never located in The Palmolive Building, though this is the claim on the otherwise [mostly] fine and comprehensive "Mapping Entertainment" panel in the first gallery. See item #16. │ The Palmolive Building indeed housed the world headquarters of Playboy Enterprises from the '60s through the '80s and for years sported a corporate sign that by today's standards would be variously denounced from "controversial' to "dangerous," but it was not -as is cited on that panel- ever the location of the pioneering "club." │ For more details, as another icon of the 1960s once observed, "You could look it up." Thank you for your attention …

Love the production of this video and the cartoon/animation added a cute, whimsical touch. Excellent photo and exhibit at the Newberry!

She is amazing - proving people wrong every step of her career. Great photo and I always assumed it was a California Beach .

That was the beach right off division st when I lived in the CABRINI GREEN area I was only a 15 minute walk

Very impressive

Still funny as ever!

Is this a real one or?

The transcript of this is glorious and should be published. Like the Giovanni Baldwin interview. 💚💛💜

Then it became a disco for black professionals it closed in 1983 I first went to it and 1980.radio personality DJ Tom joiner was the MC I met over 30 black sports and music and TV entertainers there.the were in competition. With the DINGBATS night club on Fairbanks Mr T was the bouncer who had a boxing match with Frazier the happy mediums bouncer.i had the best time in my life there from 1980 to 1983.

How old is this little girl behind the microphone.

I think it's absolutely disgusting and disrespectful that our justice system is manipulated by wealth and activists. The victims are abandoned by the courts much the same way as their murders abandoned the victims corpse.

One of the panellists mentioned the reporter, Maurine Dallas Watkins, and stated that she was the author of the musical, *Chicago.* The 1926 play of the same name that Watkins wrote is not the musical. Rather, the musical was created in 1975 by John Kander, Fred Ebb, and Bob Fosse, based on Watkins' original non-musical play.

Thank you for recording this presentation. Just a suggestion to help those viewing it virtually - if you could split the screen between the speaker and the slides that are being shown or keep the camera on the slides a little longer it would be helpful. :-)

Very interesting and well presented. Saved me 5 years of research. Thank you.

What a smug, overly verbose windbag. Exhausting. 10 minutes of content painfully stretched out into a droning, nap-length, brain-numb. Dude, put your Thesaurus away and just edit this down to the relevant action. Less posing, more canoeing. Also, just call the local indians the "Potawatomi". Anishinabe implies Odawa and Ojibwa as well, but these people didn't live around Chicago. Then you use the term "Algonquin" to describe these people. Pick a lane. You're confused. Focus. I wish I had my 42 minutes back.

So glad the exhibition will be available to people through July! Thanks for keeping Chicago's great history alive!

Mister Kelly’s will always hold a magical corner of my memories. It was the best!

Mort Sahl!

Great venue for entertainment in Chicago!

So much entertainment history and future entertainment greats past through the doors and on to the stage at the Happy Medium. Working there and at the other Marienthal venues were to be the highlight of my early career in the biz. Let's hear more David. Thanks to Oscar and George!!!

Any details to share about the Jazz Showcase in the basement?

Brilliant and Fun Video!! Thanks for creating and sharing.

I am a descendent of Jeanne Mahou AND Genevieve Bettemont. Born in Louisiana in 1970s, so the family history and roots survived in Louisiana for centuries!

Hey Jim, thanks for the video. It was a really fun tour of a beautiful atlas full of history. I have a question: the first map presented: the World Map. Do we know the authorship of this map? You first said it was probably created by Mercator and then stopped yourself and said "based on." I'm aware this is not Mercator's 1569 map of 'corrected navigation', but it does seem to bare some similarities. Additionally, it bares similarities to Gastaldi's 1546 'Universale'....I wonder if either of these men had a direct hand in creating the map used in the Atlas. Let me know what you know about this particular map. Also, do you have any sources to view the Theatrum Atlas in its entirety online? Thanks

I just found out that Juliette Kinzie is my ancestor, on my mother's side. Thank you for keeping her memories and history alive.

If Uskudar'a Gider Iken reminded you of Rasputin by Boney M, it should.

Superb!!

Thank you for sharing this fascinating presentation on Harriet Monroe. This lecture greatly enhances the outstanding exhibit at the Poetry Foundation.

What we have here is compelling material. A similar book I read was equally riveting. "Stars Aligned" by Olivia Whitestone

?

Terrific!

This was a very informative talk. Thank you.

I need to get some books on witchcraft so I can make my bonfire this weekend ❤

Great video humanizing the experience. It may sound weird to say, but sometimes it can be intimidating going into branches like Newberry or The Harold Washington Library, because you’re unsure where to go when you enter, what you can ask about and/or how to even get started.. Great video!

is he handling the original book???if yes how could the library allow him to touch it without gloves????

A very interesting video although perhaps a little obsessed with the idea of printing a scientific instrument. For Volvelles, Equatoria and the like that's fine, but I'm not convinced of the merits of a 'cut it out, glue it to something else, assemble it and then you get an inaccurate copy of a scientific instrument' system. Having said that the 'paper' astrolabe you showed did look aesthetically marvelous. One of your speakers seemed a little confused as to why the Zodiac signs were engraved on the ecliptic ring of an astrolabe - perhaps they have forgotten that the coordinate system locating the positions of celestial bodies, from before Ptolemy to well into the Renaissance, was based on the ecliptic longitude and the angular distance from the ecliptic. And the ecliptic longitude was recorded as the Zodiacal sign plus however many degrees, minutes and seconds the object had passed into the sign. (Each sign is defined as 30 degrees of longitude. Thus the position of Mars at a certain time might be recorded as Gemini +19 22' , -3.0 ). The Astrolabe is marked so that an observation can be read in this way - a way that has advantages over recording the longitude only in degrees, at least in terms of avoidance of errors. A further point regarding the presence of the Zodiac signs on the Astrolabe is the importance of these signs in practical medicine. Up to and including the middle ages Astrology was part of the scientific curriculum and, in medieval times, played a vital role in deciding the treatment of illness. The elemental theory of wet/dry and hot/cold included the fluids of the human body as well as the hours of the day (the planetary hours) and the 'tides' of these fluids was thought to be strongly influenced by the relative positions of the Sun and Moon - so in order to know what type of treatment was the most likely to cure the patient at a particular hour, the doctor had to be aware of the zodiacal locations of the Sun and Moon at that hour. Being an educated person the doctor could get this information from his professionally made brass astrolabe.

Thank you for posting! I wasn’t able to attend.
