Reply to comment by jeremyjava in Trying to track down what happened to this enormous macrame wall hanging in a hotel lobby (Watergate?). My mom made it back in the 70s. Any thoughts on tracking it down appreciated. by jeremyjava
With a backstory like that I really hope it was preserved. Can see a demo crew wanting to trash it though. Very cool 70s vibe. In a way it reminds me of Peter Max (with the lines anyway).

Gastric cancer, and only 35. Damn. Terrible blow for family and community.

I've actually had good dealings with OTR, specifically on an unincorporated franchise tax issue. It was during COVID so it had to be by phone. It required several calls, during one of which the agent promised to call me back (thought bubble: yeah right). Amazingly two hours later he did.
That said, I think in person is the way to go, and bring TONS of patience and good vibes. And check out the advocate, it has worked for people I know. Good luck!
