Submitter: We’ve just weeded this 1983 biography of the Mandrell sisters, The Mandrell Family Album, by Louise Mandrell and Ace Collins.  We were disappointed that, apart from the sparkly 80’s cover, there were no other color photos.  We did get a kick out of the many black and white photos that showed how much the Mandrells loved big hair.  One of my colleagues commented, “Look…it’s genetic!” when she saw the mother’s photo.

Holly: Oh good grief.  This is a slam dunk for weeding!  Even people go out of date…
