Andrew, I've sent you another pm - Dan Stewart has contacted Ken Poston from the LAJI (Los Angeles Jazz Institute) & he is interested in taking your uncle's notes. Contact details (for Ken) are in the pm

One of my favorite films, and it was on TCM a couple nights ago. I have the Criterion Blu-ray release, but watched it again anyway, and I always see something different. Also, it never occurred to me that the entire film takes place in a 24-hour period. This was mentioned by the TCM Host.

Seeing most of them on the TCM streaming platform inside HBO Max. Music on the silent is modern. It should be noted, though, that Prime has a pretty good selection of mif-century Noir and quality Bs. Just finished: Music was a modern orchestration of original themed by Chaplin.  

I had that Vanguard at one point; '65 seems like where things really get going. Gathering all the Lacy Hats into one box might be difficult. That is a lot of material.
