Parting Shot

While reading Frank Bole’s Selecting and Appraising Archives and Manuscripts recently, I found a funny quote. Unfortunately, I had the book on ILL and returned it yesterday, so I can’t quote it exactly. Boles was writing about archivists communicating with other institutions to ensure that different archives do not needlessly duplicate each other. He quoted someone who asked facetiously, “How many copies of the moon shot do we need anyway?”

Apparently, more than we now have.

Somehow, NASA lost the moon shot video.
