OK, I confess. This was NOT a New Year's Eve party. It happened a couple of months ago, but it took me so long to get the photos processed that we might as well play Let's Pretend.
Dick and Bette Wald boldy opened their home to a mob of distinguished collector types, who came from all points between Seattle and Californy. There was more book talk than the law allows, the consumption of massive quantities of food, and the imbibing of a great many adult beverages. To the surprise of no one, a bodacious time was had by all. Thankfully, Ace photographer Bob Stuart was on hand to capture these images for posterity. Sadly, a number of revellers managed to evade his aim, but here are those who didn't . . .

Bob Stuart failed to take a selfie, so I've added this Lancecon pic (courtesy of Art Scott) from a few years back. In the background: Me. We both still look exactly the same. Honest.

Once again I missed it. Was a lot of his stuff sold? Looks like everyone had a great time.
I picked up a few books for myself (including several volumes of Robert Sampson's Yesterday's Faces), but was too busy partying to see what else walked out the door.
Opps! That's Joan Stuart not June. Susan (Bob Gavora's partner) is on the couch with Bud Plant. The pic you have identified as me is actually George Clooney.
Okay, I reluctantly confess to such crimes, and have made such corrections as I'm able. Thanks for ratting me out, Unknown.
