Special Thanks

Any project of this size will involve a number of people, and I've had the fortune of knowing many jacket collectors who have graciously allowed me to photograph their jackets. In some cases they've sent their jackets to me from around the U.S. Others live very close to me, and, due to the volume of jackets they have, are a great source of content for this CD. They're listed in alphabetical order, but each one knows the level of help they've given me.

* A special thanks goes to Marc Weinshenker for working quite hard to ensure my English was both correct and at least somewhat coherent. He spent many an hour reading and correcting every statement on this CD.
