Not to mention the news on the Magnum 50 Years exhibition (and book) and how to submit portfolios to the NY office. There were quite a few Luggers that were intrested in things concerning "Magnum" when last I posted on the subject. I thought it was a great site filled with Magnum trivia. BTW, for those of you that were intrested in "The Magnum Story" documentary I was trying to find, this website had the email address and special projects contact person at the NY office, so I requested info. When they reply I will let everyone know if the tapes are available. If any one else wants to contact them directly, it's in the "how to reach us " section @ http://magnumphotos.capgemini.co.uk//home.htm Mark
