To everyone who replied, many thanks. Well, if there are no recordings of Mark Twain's voice, at least we still have Hal Holbrook! I first saw Holbrook's portrayal "Mark Twain Tonight!" on educational TV (NET?) back in the sixties - no PBS then. I never saw it again -- until about seven years ago when Holbrook came here to Milwaukee and I saw him perform live. Amazing! Hal opened his show by invisibly blowing a puff of cigar smoke out from behind the curtain on stage-left. Then the grand old man himself strode out to center-stage in his white suit. Now, I'm not old enough to have ever seen the real Twain in the flesh. So I have to accept this on faith -- Hal Holbrook _is_ Mark Twain! ...to me, at least, he seems to be. So this leads up to yet another question. I don't think a video exists of Mark Twain Tonight! Can anyone prove me wrong? I would dearly love to get my hands on one. So if anyone on the list knows how I may obtain such a tape, please be kind enough to inform me. I would be most grateful. I know the show was captured on film at least once, since I saw the show televised some 30 years ago. Paul Lyman
