No photos may be reproduced, reposted or used in any manner except that of viewing without the express written permission of Sideshow World^TM or the copyright holder.  Please note that the members of the Sideshow World^TM staff have been collecting and storing photos for many years without the thought of ever creating a website.  Given that fact it would be nearly impossible to remember where and when each photo was obtained to give the proper credits.  The following is a short list of places we would like to thank for allowing us to use their photos.  Ward Hall, Judy Tomaini Rock, Special Collections - Kansas City Public Library, Kansas City Missouri, Bridgeport Public Library, Bridgeport Connecticut, Bridgewater Public Library, Bridgewater Massachusetts,  Taunton Public Library, Taunton Massachusetts, Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division Washington D.C..  If you're not on the list and think you should be drop us a line.
