Sak's done it again! His updated interface to blplaybills.org is more mobile/tablet-friendly, and the different search options are clearer, plus his earlier OCR improvements. And checked that structured info for individual playbills!

A view from the projection booth of the convention floor in the theater.
A view from behind the panel where the organ once sat.
Some vintage wallpaper, with a raised textural design
A cabinet to hold reels.
The second day of the Dark History & Horror CON was great. I had a chance to sneak behind the scenes and up to the projection room. A somewhat perilous journey up tiny steps and tiny hallways, I almost chickened out. I'm glad I didn't. 1/6 #TheaterHistory #OrpheumTheater

Have you checked out Sak Supple's blplaybills.org lately? He's been experimenting with semantic search, and improving OCR for British Library playbills.
A big boon for #TheaterHistory / #TheatreHistory!
Please let him or us know if you have feedback or ideas
