Writing About Murder, She Wrote: Archival Materials


Over the years I've managed to gather a number of magazine and newspaper articles written about Murder, She Wrote and Angela Lansbury. Now, thanks to the technological magic of the flatbed scanner, I can share them with all of you.


For starters, here are various articles written up in TV Guide Magazine. Forgive the tape marks along the page edges; these are, after all, taken from my personal archives and are several years old. In addition, I have discovered with time and experience that not all transparent tape is created equally! So try to look past my imperfect skills as an archivist and enjoy the content.


If I get another nice block of time to play with, I'll try to get some newspaper clippings and articles from other magazines up sometime in the future.


Clicking on the thumbnail of each page will show you a full-sized version that I hope you'll find big enough to read. If it isn't, I apologize; I'm having a dickens of a time figuring out how to make the images large enough to see without taking up too much disc space ... or taking forever for them to open on your computer.
