Retrospect of Woodstock at 40 - Need Help

[joann1108]

SEARCHING FOR WOODSTOCK ‘69 PHOTOS

This is Joanne Hague from the Woodstock - Preservation Archives. I was hoping that there is someone out here who could possibly help me.

We’ve been approached by the publishers of Goldmine Record Album Price Guide (Krause), to author a retrospective of Woodstock at 40. We are trying to amass a daunting 500-700 rarely, if never before seen, photos of Woodstock and the Bethel/White Lake area at that time, to commemorate the 40th anniversary coming up next year..

Our vision of this book is to use photos from festival-goers, crew, townspeople and such and present this book from their perspectives, which will make it different from any others. Included in the book will be memories from people who were there - at the concert, and in the area. Also, pictures of memorabilia from the festival, posters, tickets, stuff from Yasgur's farm, etc., provided we can locate these buried treasures.

We are calling out to everyone who might have photos from that time, or know someone who might have a box tucked away that could be contributed to this project. Snapshots, film footage - any condition. We’re following all leads. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Please contact me directly at:

Thank you in advance for your help.

I do hope that this project goes off without a hitch and that many new photos and films come out of this, I am looking forward to seeing the end product.
I also took the liberty of passing this along to some friends that just might have something, at least I know that they were there.

Hey thanks for the plug PF but afraid I couldn't be of much help although I could possibly put you in contact with someone I knew who was there. Whether they'd have photos I tend to doubt.
