Re: Re: Re: Charlie Chan History Day display

Russell,
I'm curious as to how the crowds reacted to your display. Did many younger people even know who the character was? Did older folks remember? I wish I could have attended.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Charlie Chan History Day display

Dear bradford@nytimes.com: I am sorry I didn't reply straight away, but there is really little answer to your questions. People looked at the display to be sure. Of course the children had no clue. The adults did recognize Chan, but as I said there were many other artifacts in the hall which overshadowed my modest display. I wish I was more agressive in questioning them to see what they thought and felt about the character. I take it as a first step success. I was there and tried. Next time I hope to do better. The more I think about it the more ambitious I get. I might try my hand at creating a fantasty. How does this sound: "Charlie Chan in Norristown". That might get them to sit up and take notice.
