About

I started this blog at at the first of the year at larryshapiro.tumblr.com and have created 6 months worth of content there. I have since decided that the format provided on tumblr does not adequately offer everything that I’m looking for.

So as of June 1, 2014, I’ll be posting to this new site.

Thank you for visiting.

  5. Larry,
    i met you years ago at a CFD muster. I have many of your photos in my collection.

    i am in the process of downsizing and have a massive collection of CFD photos and slides, and a huge FAJ collection to get into the ‘right’ hands. Do you have Bill Friedrich’s email or phone so i can ask him? know anyone else i can inquire with in Chicagoland? have many old CFD journals as well. thx Dale Belles
