Early posters/advertizing

Early documents including original drafts of the WE ARE ALL IN LOCAL business plan, a plan for a WE ARE ALL IN LOCAL free press (which evolved into the community message board), a protocol schematic (drafted in the Continental Club Gallery), genre heat map worksheet and linear calendar blueprints, and a printed invitation to the discussion "Fairness Within The Austin, TX Music Community".  

Local commercials and an infomercial which reflect an alternate version of the model that includes a national booking component.
