Looking for Pictures


Greetings, 'Horns and Friends of 'Horns! Two of Eddie's first assistants from 1978-80, Chuck Warner and Dana Abbott, are writing a book about Eddie's 40+ years on the Forty Acres, the working title is "Eddie Reese: Coaching Swimming, Teaching Life". A good chunk of the net proceeds will go to the Reese/Kubik Legacy Campaign.  Chuck and Dana have a good book in writing but need photos from the earlier years, primarily 80s and 90s. If you have some you can share with them, contact Dana at reese-book@outlook.com and we can work out how to share. If digital, they need to be at least 300dpi (right-click on the image, select Properties, then look under the Details tab, scroll down to Image and look at the numbers for horizontal and vertical resolution, 300dpi is what the publisher needs for digital photography).  If film prints, the larger the print the better, and NEGATIVES or SLIDES are better still. Happy to send a list of names of swimmers, coaches, and other parties mentioned in the book if you will contact Dana at reese-book@outlook.com, but ANY good photos are welcome and could get included. All photographs used will be acknowledged in the book (and returned), here's your chance to be semi-famous beyond your swimming careers!  With gratitude and appreciation in advance from the authors!!!
