Hello all:
For an ongoing project I'm searching for film footage of the NYC (and San Francisco) gay nightlife scene in the late 1970s, early 80s. This can include discos, Christopher Street, bars straight clubs and more. Home movies are welcome. If you have any leads or details post here or email me off list.
