Modern Day Discovery of a Treasure Cave
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

WHOA!!!!
I bet they had to be very careful removing the dust and cobwebs in there--one wrong move, and a rare antique that shed light on this lady's life would be gone forever. I wonder what the condition of the rugs, etc., was? After all that time, there had to be some breakdown of the fibers--no artifical fabrics back then, just pure wool. Stunning pictures.

I'm more interested on how they can keep themselves from sneezing all over the place. Those windows haven't been opened in decades.
