Subject: Kite Aerial Photography Contest

I spent the weekend in Long Beach and made a visit to the Kite Museum.  I 
started talking to Kay Buesing and she informed me that they were preparing 
to start setting up for a photo contest.  I offered to post something here 
so what follows is copy from a document she gave me.

Kite aerial photographers around the world - you are invited to enter the 
photo contest commemorating the 100th anniversary of the first U.S.A. photo 
>From a kite by Wm. A. Eddy.  The competition is open to amateur and 
professional photographers.

The grand prize will be $300 and honorable mention will be awarded at the 
judges discretion.  All entries with information about the photographer will
