I'm looking to find the text of an obituary which apparently was published on page 29 of this newspaper, entitled "Dr. Max Gerson, 77, Cancer Specialist". The NYT online archive can't find it, but this may be due to an OCR error. Has anybody got access via alternative means? Alexbrn talk| contribs| COI 09:35, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
70 years ago, a very popular activity was making bracelets, lanyards, and leashes out of a multicolored plastic material called "gimp." It had nothing to do with computers but was much used in cub scouts and other groups.
It was sold in hobby shops and 5&10 cent stores.
Is the material still available, perhaps under another name?
