  Your comments or suggestions are always welcome and encouraged. I am always on othe look-out for John Wayne and/or classic film information to pass along in these little newsletters, if you come across any news on these subjects, please let me know. The newsletter has a new look to it with a new background. Let me know if like or if you don't. If it is too difficult to read I will go back the old blue background.
