1969 - Newspaper Article - Patterson Gives Presentation in Spokane (Updated)

[Trogluddite]

Published in the Spokane (WA) Spokesman-Review on February 26, 1969, this article includes comments by Roger Patterson.  It is unclear whether they were made to an audience during a presentation or were in response to specific questions posed by the reporter.  Nothing jumps out as being remarkable apart from him describing Bob Gimlin as his friend, which was a sentiment that Bob Gimlin did not appear to share at this time. 

 

UPDATED 29 May 2026: While looking for other things I found a second account of the presentation in Spokane.  This account merits inclusion here because it states that Roger Patterson was in Spokane to "show a film of his [Bigfoot] expeditions the following Saturday.  Is it possible that the footage recently discovered by Roger Patterson's son was part of this film?
