Additional Technical Notes for Item
Consists of 3 audiocassettes and 1 video cassette. 2 audiocassettes are labeled with date 1977. One looks newer and is only labeled "Ralph Latson". Could possibly be duplicate of older audiocassette. Videocassette is obviously newer than 1977, and is only labeled Ralph Latson. The newer audiocassette could also be an audio-only version of the video. All there are records of at the Museum is the 1977 interview. The video has its own record.
