Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin to be honored with Museum Display

The Bigfoot Discovery Museum recognizes the Patterson-Gimlin film as the best evidence of Bigfoot to date. As such, the museum features a "life-size" enlargement of frame 352 (created by Scott McClean with help from M.K. Davis for the 2003 International Bigfoot Symposium in Willow Creek, California), a copy of one of Patterson's footprint casts from that day and a multimedia display running the film and some recent analysis on a loop nearby. There is also a display of some still photos from the famous film and a display of the 1968 Argosy magazine article. We are planning on expanding this display to include a tribute to the two men responsible for this film-Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin. We would request items relating to or photographs of either man to include in the display. We will treat these as either a donation or to the museum or a temporary loan. All contributions to this tribute to Patterson and Gimlin are greatly appreciated. Bob Gimlin is an honorary member of the museum, by the way.
