The Granada Ant

I am just about finished with my new book "Santa Barbara Then and Now" but need your help with two photos.

#1 - Way back in 1978, the Ant Queen (aka Pat Fish) painted a giant ant on the side of the Granada Building below KTYD's eighth floor window. I need a photo of it for the book. I checked with Pat and she doesn't have one. Anybody out there have one?

#2 - The March 11, 2011 EDition of edhat had a series of photographs of Santa Barbara from 1975. They were sent in by an unidentified edhat subscriber. I would love to use the photo of Don & Shirley's Pony Rides and also the face of the Popcorn Man and give appropriate credit for whoever has these photos. Here's the Pony Rides photo that was posted.

Please contact me at nealg@silcom.com
Thank you!
