Summary
The October 2005 Beaver Beacon reported that films and videos Jack Cull recorded over more than fifty years of Beaver Island life were missing from his former home. The appeal sought their return so they could be copied for the Museum and people who had requested event footage.
Evidence limits
The appeal documents the reported loss and preservation plan, not who removed the material or whether it was later recovered.
