2007-012.F598PDescription
Basketball, 1977. These nine black and white contact print strips were created for the Lacey Leader newspaper. These images were created using two separate film rolls, so some of the physical numbers on the strips are repeated. For the purposes of this description, these strips will be grouped according to the film roll from which they originally came. Each group will be assigned a lower-case letter to go along with the physical numbers on the strips (ex: 1a, 2a, 3a, 1b, 2b, 3b, etc.) to help differentiate between images.
The images in group "a" show a men's basketball game between the Shelton High School Highclimbers and the North Thurston High School Rams. The game appears to have been played in the Capital Pavilion on the Saint Martin's campus. All of these images (28a-44a, 1a-4a) show the game underway.
The images in group "b" show an adult recreation league men's basketball game between the team from Tru-Truss (a roof truss manufacturer headquartered in Lacey) and Coast-to-Coast (a hardware store also located in Lacey). Images 35b through 44b and 1b through 8b show the game being played. Images 9b and 10b show the interior of a men's public bathroom. Images 11b through 13b again show the game being played.Made/Created
