Couldn't find this in a search so I thought I'd post it up. Youtube has a great video (actually part 1 and part 2) that I found. Taken from Life Magazine.

Love the vids. I even kind of like the hold music background tunes.

Ahh...watching the 2nd vid. This was the sort of background music I was expecting.

There were obviously alot of famous people in there, but Bing Crosby and Douglas MacArthur are about the only ones I recognized.

And this last one... the photo of the painting gets larger if you click

I thought that this was a good string and didn't stay in the forum very long.

I think it was pushed off to quickly.

I've only got a bit of time, watching the first video. Man, that's hypnotic. I gotta comment and move on before I either fall asleep or run out and pack my pipe.
