Help wanted: Lopking for an author, date and source

Postby Dan Bradbury » July 24th, 2021, 11:38 am

I recently came across a printed copy of VIVA VIAN! THE AMAZING LIFE AND ADVENTURES OF "THE GREAT VIANO! It is a tribute and bio to Don Viano and appars to be a printed and spiral wire bound copy of an electronic file. It does not have anything approaching a traditional title page with author, date, etc. Can anyone identify the author ot this and the date of publication and where the file resides? There are a couple of internal clues, but I can't determine the authorship for sure. Thanks for any help. - Dan

Dan,

Found this group - https://sites.google.com/site/nocstories/in-memoriam - maybe they would have some information or contacts.

Also found these photos on eBay

Thanks, Terry. ll see what I can find out there. The book contains a number of press reports and photos, but I'm not sure any of these are among them. - Dan
