    Funny thing, I was at the Phila. Library Book Sale one week after SIGGRAPH '83
    and bought a brand-new copy of those proceedings for $1.50. Obviously, they
    didn't know what they were selling. 

    I've also noticed the University libraries in Phila. have very few issues of
    the Siggraph proceedings. (Though they often have complete sets of BYTE
    magazine.)
	
    One effective method for finding papers is to find people with an interest
    in graphics, and copy the papers you are interested in. Local SIGGRAPH's
    are good for this.
