I posted a number of photos of Magoo in this thread Godspeed Danny some of my own, some reprints of mags that are up on the web, and a couple others up on the web that were not my shots, including at least one by Warren Price, a pretty good photographer back in the day and currently as well.
I don't think I gave any attribution to any of the pics (including my own), and apparently that left the impression that I took the pics that are Warren's property.
I got a very pleasant email from Warren over the weekend asking that his pics not be used, out of respect for his rights and his business. I absolutely agree that folks should not claim credit for photos they don't take and apologize for any misimpression that my carelessness here caused.
Check out Warren's site, he's got some great stuff for sale.

So blame me more than TWMX.
I think he is too modest, as I really had to search for his name on the site.
His name is Randy Petree, of the greater Kansas City area. His entire site is really cool, so take some time and navigate it all. Magoo is featured in the "July 3, 1977 125 National" article. I was at that event.

Great pictures and text.

That's a great pic; I neglected to credit Warren. I'm trying to remedy that now and direct people to his work, which is terrific. As much as anyone I appreciate that people should credit a photographer for his work. I suspect there may have been some confusion about whether I was claiming it as my own, which I didn't, wouldn't, and never have done with another photographer's works. Ever. I think the context of the thread bears that out. That said, Warren should be credited for his work and his rights respected.
Jay, your reaction is uncalled for. As I tried to convey, Warren was gracious in every respect. I have the greatest respect for the people who recorded the sport's history, and for good photographers in general. You should, too.
Photo hound>>> NO ONE WAS TRYING TO STEAL YOU PHOTO OR MAKE A BUCK OFF IT..
Wash the sand form your vagina and relax.
Again, you deserve a lot of respect, Mike. This post was certainly not necessary for me ... but thanks to one photographer from another.
PS: I donated images to Magoo's van fund as well. Brad did not use them but they were certainly available.
