This absolutely free event is meant to emulate the experience that I give to researchers who want to have a moment with the Spider-Man story from the original drawings from Amazing Fantasy #15 (1962) at the Library of Congress: https://www.prekindle.com/event/43872-object-lesson-spider-man, except the Prints & Photographs Division does not let children under 16 into the reading room so this is an all-ages event. Please register – it's absolutely free-of-charge. Marvel Worldwide has given me permission to share some PowerPoint slides with details from the drawings. The Prints & Photographs Division of the Library of Congress has been closed to researchers for over a year, but we've been working to create virtual programming to provide access to our collections.
