When You Have the Coolest Clients EVER!
One of my clients in the business of restoring and sharing silent films shared one of his newest projects: "Pill Pounder" with Clara Bow. Well, he's actually sharing it with the world.
This previously-thought-to-be a "lost" silent film will be seen for the first time in 101 years. How do we get everything, even the stars to line up to fall into such a find?

My mantra? Nothing is ever lost in the universe. Oh, and my other one: all things have historical relevance and connections. ALL!
