Hi ya'll,

I am a big fan of Elmer Keith. Have read quite a bit of his work over the last few years and I am just completely hooked. The more I read, the better it gets.

Although I know what he looked liked during his life from the many b/w stills I have in the books, I am quite curious as to how the man spoke and how he moved.

Have searched youtube but to no avail. If anyone has a link or similar to any tape recording or preferably a video recording, I'd be much obliged.

Cheerio,

you might try the --NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION--since he was a board of directors member. He spoke at a number of events, so they may help you.

Thanks!

Therewas a commercial a few years back that showed people rafting down a river and later in camp, a short stoky guy with a big hat chopping wood. Guess who? Elmer himself. So there is at last one piece of film with him in it. Damned if I can remember the product or the hunting show as comcst dropped that sporting channel and replaced ir with versus which only shows hunting and fishing during the day when I don't watch the tube. As short as that litle piece was, there surely has to be more that that piece came from. Of course, it is silent but it was a pleasant surprise when I realized who was chopping the wood.
As long as we'e taling film of that type, I'd love to snag some of the Martin and Osa Johnson footage, silent or otherwise.
