Filmmaker seeks Cubs artifacts

John Scheinfeld, the documentary filmmaker whose subjects have included Bette Midler, Andy Williams, and John Lennon, is working on a season-long project about the 2008 Chicago Cubs called We Believe. Much like we do at the Lovable Losers Literary Revues, John is trying to explore the relationship us fans have to our team rather than making a sports movie.

He is searching for Cubs artifacts to help in his filming, and asked if we might help him track some things down.

Here’s what he needs:

1. Interesting pieces of Cubs paraphernalia

2. Old photos of the Cubs playing--especially if there are family photos and oddities.

3. Film footage of yourself and family at Wrigley in the days when you could get away with that.

In other words, he’s not sure exactly what he wants, but something visual, rare and cool. If you have something like this, you probably know.

Losers: help out, if you can. There won’t be payment for the use of these items, unless it’s something Scheinfeld and crew are desperate to get their hands on, but they will give credit at the end of the film.

Contact us at the Web site and let us know what it is you have. We’ll find out whether or not the item is wanted, and then make the proper connections. Thanks in advance.
