Building a Kingdom Hall in two days - Oakland CA 1984

I was invited to assist with the landscaping of the new Quick Build Hall in Oakland California, in 1984

I thought I might bring my sketchbook along to the project to get a few drawings. Little did I know that it would be two of the most "fast and furious" days of my life. The drawings record the building of a complete Kingdom Hall in LESS than two days by thousands of willing volunteers. The first meeting in the Hall was held on Sunday, 32 hours after the start of construction and was recorded and televised by Channel 2 TV.

The images were drawn in my personal diary which I kept in a 6" x 8" blank black book. The drawings were made with a common #2 pencil. The book paper was archival quality and acid free 100% rag.
