Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. LOCSPX_150918_01.JPG: The Small Press Expo Collection: Since August, 2011, the Library has acquired independent comics and mini-comics from the Small Press Expo's annual festival. The collection is housed in the Serial & Government Publications Division. These items, generally not available through copyright deposit, reflect the innovation and experimentation in subject, format, and artistic technique of today's comic book creators.
2. LOCSPX_150918_13.JPG: The Small Press Expo Collection: The collection includes works that show the evolution of an idea, technique, or story line. Congressman Lewis' moving autobiography, March, first appeared in preview form at SPX a year before the graphic novel. Ken Wong demonstrates the flexibility of print in Tamatebako, retelling a Japanese folktale by constructing a treasure box. Joel Gill's Strange Fruit mini-comic serial of unknown African-Americans became a noteworthy anthology. Chris Ware experiments with formats, characters, and stories in his Acme Novelty Library series.
3. LOCSPX_150918_33.JPG: The Small Press Expo Collection: Small press creators take conventional formats and revitalize them in unique ways. Sunday comic strips transport readers to a fantastically absurd world on the high seas. Classic literature is given new life as parodies using comic books. A fable of love and hardship becomes a graphic novel replete with Arabic calligraphy, exquisite designs, and complex storytelling.
4. LOCSPX_150918_62.JPG: 2014 Ignatz Award Winners & Nominees: SPX presents the Ignatz Awards annually. The award is named for American cartoonist George Herriman's brick-wielding mouse from the "Krazy Kat" comic strip of the 1910s. Unlike mainstream comic awards like the Eisner Awards, the Ignatz honors independent comics. It recognizes exceptional work that challenges popular notions of what comics can achieve, both as an art form and as a means of personal expression.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.

2015 photos: I retired from the US Census Bureau in god-forsaken Suitland, Maryland on my 58th birthday in May. Yee ha! Trips this year: a quick trip to Florida. two Civil War Trust conferences (Raleigh, NC and Richmond, VA), and my 10th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Los Angeles). Ego Strokes: Carolyn Cerbin used a Kevin Costner photo in her USA Today article. Miss DC pictures were used a few times in the Washington Post. Equipment this year: I mostly used my Fuji XS-1 camera but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Number of photos taken this year: just over 550,000.
