Document

A computer printout of two job listings at Queen Mary College, University of London, printed on 16 September 1998, and sent to Janet and Edward Galore in an envelope dated 28 October 1998.

A four sheet, four page, single sided copy of James Acord's "Stories from 013A: The Blind Fish" from October 1998.
This is a description and story of his time at the Blackett Laboratories shop at the Physics Department of Imperial College, London, in 1998. The core of the story is about a more than fourteen-year-old blind fish in its " a small dirty tank three floors below ground in the workshops of Blackett Laboratory." This blind fish was a subject of multiple artworks by James Acord.

A single sheet, two page handwritten (in pencil) letter from artist Jed Brignal (Nottingham, UK) to James [Flint], and forwarded to Janet Galore in Seattle. This is undated, but is within an envelope from 23 January 2012.
This letter concerns: (1) a color copy of an artwork by James Acord that is included, created in watercolor and gold leaf; (2) about the ATOMIC exhibition, which was held at The Yard Gallery at Wollatron Hall in Nottingham [in late 1999]; descriptions of the contents of photographs enclosed with the letter.

A photocopy of a Dan Piraro ("Bizarro") comic on sculpture, dated 5 June 2007.

A single sheet, single-sided photocopy of an article syndicated by the Los Angeles Times titled "Earliest human sculpture found."

A flier for Darby House, a "Healing and Learning Centre" in Nottingham, England.
This is a single sheet, printed on color on the recto and black and white on the verso.

A photocopy of the article "Sculpting with nukes" by Chris Arnot, an article about James Acord. This includes images of Acord, including the [uncredited] Arthur Aubry photograph of Acord's radioactive materials handling license, tattooed on the back of his neck.
It is not stated on this copy, but the article comes from *The Guardian*, Tuesday, 26 October 1999, Section G2, Page 12.

This is a fold out poster for "Transnationala" by Irwin, a promotional document for a film and a book of Alexander Brener, Vadim Fishkin Yuri Leiderman, a five-member team from the Irwin group, Eda Čufer, and Michael Benson traveling across the US to gather "impressions of the indigenous culture, to exchange views with the natives, and to make contact with the American system of art, politics, theory, ethics, economics—and with the myth of America itself. Throughout the journey, as they meet up with artists in the US, "short textual and video reports were sent via the internet and transmitted on a TV monitor located in Irwin's vehicle in the Bojimans Museum in Rotterdam." This is "part conceptual art project, part search for community, part alien encounter between East and West, part investigation of individual vs. collective identity, part research into networks, protocols, and communication, and part psychological endurance test."
During this journey they meet up with James Acord, and a photograph of the back of Acord's neck — with his radiocative materials handling license number — is represented on this item.

A menu for the "Atomic Ale Brewpub & Eatery," 1015 Lee Boulevard, Richland, WA., from 1997.
This is marked with James Acord's red-ink writing to Janet and Edward Galore: "Next time your [sic] over!!"
Acord has also underscored the "Half-Life Hefeweisen," the "Atomic Amber," and the "Plutonium Porter" on the third page, with red pen.

Page A3 from the 13 March 1997 Tri-City Herald. Nothing particularly illuminating, as noted by James Galore in red ink on the top mast: "Slice of life from Richland. I thought this page would put you back in touch." [written for Janet and Edward Galore]
There is a second red ink note on the article "Supercomputer to be tested before put to work at Hanford," where Acord notes "I can't believe I know these guys!!" [referring to the picture of the Computing facility manager]
