Historical April–May 2010 article. Dates, prices, services and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
Celebrating Skinker-DeBaliviere, History and Comeback, by Jo Ann Vatcha and Marjorie Weir, includes the history written in the 70’s by Georgiana B. Stuart, Susan Tepas, and Kathy Harleman, and dozens of photographs and articles from the TIMES over the past 40 years.
The book includes a DVD of interviews with neighborhood residents who comment on our neighborhood’s comeback in the 70’s.
The book and DVD may be ordered directly (at a discount) by emailing marj.weir@charter.net or jvatcha@gmail.com. Make checks payable to the TIMES of Skinker-DeBaliviere. Books are also available online–a link to publisher is at http://centennial. citywestend.org. Books are also sold at the Missouri History Museum gift shop, for somewhat more than if ordered directly from the TIMES.
However, our last bulk order has been made, and remaining copies are still available at the original $ 38.95 cost. Our website also includes an index, through which you can search someone’s name and find out on what page(s) they’re featured in the book. Thanks to all for your lovely notes about our book and DVD.
