The Cleveland SGS Team would like to invite all of our friends to the “All Things Cleveland” group show at the Asterisk Gallery this Friday, November 14th from 6pm – 10pm.

On Friday the SGS Team will be unveiling, for the first time ever, their custom designed Flexicolor Video Display System better known as the Flexibooth. The Cleveland SGS Flexibooth is a handsomely designed informational kiosk outfitted with a state of the art video display unit. Its message, conveyed in five family friendly video shorts, is one of love and financial literacy.

The SGS Flexibooth was inspired by the design elegance and commercial functionality of VGR Systems Corporation’s Advanced Video Distribution Center 3200 (AVDC 3200). VGR Systems Incorporated is a longstanding Cleveland-based commercial entity that introduced one of the first 8mm stand-up peep booths to the Adult industry in the late 1960’s. Since that time VGR Systems has delivered Cleveland’s unique brand of video display ingenuity around the globe. Cleveland SGS salutes VGR Systems’ contributions to both video delivery and the economic growth of Cleveland, Ohio.

The Asterisk Gallery is located at 2393 Professor Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44113.

Sincerely,

SGS DGC

Politicians, urban planners, and journalists all have theories about what specific event precipitated to the decline of our city. Inevitably during these discussions both Muny Light and  forced school busing are brought up.  Although we know that it was not one event but decades of greed and corruption that led us to this quagmire, it is still an interesting question to examine.  SGS borrowed this election flyer from Clevelander Scorpio Diamante to recall this important moment in CLE history. For additional information on this story click on this link about Municipal Light or this link about public school desegregation. For more ClevelandSGS political scans please check out this link.

ClevelandSGS found this rare photo of Cleveland gangster Shondor Birns(standing on the right).  SGS decided to read anew two books on the history of the Cleveland Mafia.  Check out The Rise and Fall of the Cleveland Mafia: Corn Sugar and Blood, and To Kill the Irishman: The War that Crippled the Mafia.  The book To Kill the Irishman covers the life of mobster Danny Greene.  For a look at other ClevelandSGS mob scans please take a look at this link.

The mix below is a perfect audio compliment to Globe Theatre graphics.  SGS’s favorite modern composer DJ Sega, offers up some hallowed finance with his remix of Whassup Whassup (feat. Rye Rye). Check it, 4 Big Days start now!
