I brought the NYCB archives back to December 1997, which is the
earliest point at which there is something recognizable as NYCB.
There is a sort of proto-NYCB throughought 1996 and 1997 in the "What's new"
page for Crummy (then an attempt at a pure humor site like
you get with the Modern Humorist nowadays),
but that is definitely not going back up on the Web. I'm emberassed
enough to show you what I was writing in 1998, though I am glad
that I can link to
Addicted to Vaudeville in its proper context (cf. Kris, who actually did something with it).
