"We loved your Fantastic Tulsa Films show, I called several friends to tell them to watch it. When scenes of the airports at 61 & Yale and on Sheridan were viewed, our older friends were children and remember those occasions, it was such a surprise and delight, bringing back such good memories."
Great Job! - Sue Piggott
"The films bring back countless memories of my years in Tulsa. The DVD will be a treasured addition to my DVD collection. I can’t wait to show it to my grandchildren! They will, no doubt, find the hair and clothing styles interesting. I’m sure it will also peak their interest in the 1957 Belvedere buried at the County Courthouse. I envision many other Tulsa families watching this together during the Holidays and sharing memories with children and grandchildren. The timing of this DVD release couldn’t be more perfect. What a great gift!"
