If I may, I think it is a very nice. Very nice. Cut down. FYI, you obviously decide: Victory Boogie Woogie was the key work / inspiration in the show. It's mentioned in all the sources. It's referenced in the Troy book in great detail. Really good book. But it gets a little muddled because of the artwork's fragility and so it's unclear after the first show when it was also exhibited across ~28 shows. It was in the first show in Hartford definitely. Then they exhibited copies, and then the real VBW later in a couple of places. It's unclear and an issue in the history. Also so you know, Three Flags was all over the US news, many newspapers, sold to the Whitney for 1m (they bought it for $900) in 1980. if you want a secondary source, that would be housley. I was sent a photo in Johns's current retrospective and that is even mentioned on the card next to the painting.

Hello! Please provide the sources for this content you mention above, for Victory Boogie Woogie & Three Flags and I'll add it to the article along with images. You can post the links that specifically mention these paintings being in the collection here. BTW, do you know about the edit request feature? That is the best way for a connected editor to request content to be added to an article with which they have a COI. Info and links to the Edit Request Wizard can be found here: Wikipedia:Edit Request Wizard/COI. Netherzone (talk) 01:28, 28 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi Netherzone. I'll do this soon. I must say this assessment is wildly intense, and it's very interesting. Now that I am seeing process, and intensively, I'm beginning to understand more of this. After I get through this techie punk rock festival assessment :-) (do you know how long it takes?), sure I'll look at the edit request feature, for anything in the sphere of COI. Is there something more detailed about COI that gives a full range of examples of what is COI and what isn't? I'd actually prefer every content change I might suggest in future be in this process, so there can't be any accusations in future. I'd also suggest it to some people when wiki is mentioned. It's better. You're just suggesting something and if it is used, fine, and if not, it's not. And then with an inline citation format correction addiction, then that account would only do that religiously.
