Description
Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art Humanities and Social Sciences Interview with Putt-Putt and his mother, Dorothy Meyers, in the summer, July 1990. More nice establishing shots of mountains and distant valleys at beginning of tape. MS of American flag. Putt-Putt describes Good Sam’s six-foot son, his own malaria, numerous drownings (23) in the canal and people having their feet bound with coat hangers. Audio & video are basically good, but Putt-Putt remains in the shade much of the time. UC San Diego Library, UC San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093-0175 (https://library.ucsd.edu/dc/contact)
