Handle With Care credits

Here’s a bit of trivia from the Silver Laughter days. When Paul came over from The Contents Are: to Silver Laughter, he could not remember Art’s name. So for some reason he decided to call him Gus.

We all got a huge laugh out of that, and Art seemed to like it because on the back of the “Handle With Care”album cover, he gave his photography credits to “Gus” Skamera; in other words, “Gus’s” Camera!
