Additional Details

Had it not been for Frank Wills, a watchman at the Watergate office building in Washington D.C., Richard M. Nixon might have continued as president, and who knows how history might have been changed. Wills, 24 years old at the time, happened Wills' '15 minutes of fame,' were brief indeed, and after the dust had settled, he found it difficult to find a job. He died of a brain tumor in 2000. This poster is actually a 'play' written by Richard NcCrary, a 'Blackness' spoof using the Watergate burglars as an excuse for this dialogue between Richard and Sheeba. One of the more bizarre spinoffs from an already bizarre event.
