APK: Not much to do other than tidy up the copy, fix a quotation issue, add alt text and archive the references. 7-day hold: ping me when done. An enjoyable, slice-shaped slice of DC history here.

In contrast to another GAN I did recently, you need some more commas to not have run-on sentences. ", and" is used to link separate sentences.

I also cross-checked Von Eckardt's quote and found it correct. I am presuming most of the Post quotes were reprinted in another source where they were then accessible to you. (In my case, I was able to find and add a ProQuest citation to the exact 1962 article, which I felt was merited because of the length of quote, and this source also checks out.)

Sammi Brie: Thanks so much for taking the time to review the article. Sorry for the slight delay. Jury duty and other real life events are taking up a lot of free time this week. Let me know if there are any additional issues.
