Dive Diva just got confirmation from A.L."Scrap" Lundy that Mr. Bev Morgan actually did purchase rights to Scrap Lundy's Abalone Diving Industry book. The reason stated was to make an improved version. This should be interesting to read when and if it ever comes out. Your up to date.

<p>Dive Dive if I rember correctly from what I heard in conversation at last years Historical Diving Society USA (HDSUSA) rally in Seattle rumor had it that Mr. Bev Morgan had purchased the rights to my friend Scrap Lundy's Abalone Diving book. At the time I heard this I rember thinking "Ge that's kinda odd why would he do that?" but oh well he did dive for abs in his early days so what ever? </p>

<p>And now Dive Diva you have brought to our attention a most interesting overlooked fact about the Widolf mask and the evolution and developement of the KM Band mask. So with the book purchase rights if in fact its really accurate create a very interesting series of events. Just my opinion of course. </p> If the problem was with my pi…tag:community.cdiver.net,2011-02-24:2371245:Comment:1053122011-02-24T06:36:55.957ZDive Divahttp://community.cdiver.net/profile/DiveDiva
If the problem was with my pics of KM products then the lawyers would have demanded the removal of the KM pics but they demanded the removal of the entire album with had pictures and captions of various early masks by other companies.<br />

If I was to speculate my guess would be that the offending items were the bronze mask made by Philip Widolf circa 1947 with was the first to have air and exhaust controls. A.L. "Scrap" Lundy in his out-of-print book "The California Abalone Industry: a pictorial history." (ISBN-10: 0941332586) speaks of how in the 1960s, Bev Morgan and Ramsey Parks modified this Widolf mask by inserting the second stage from a single hose SCUBA regulator through the glass face port. Leading to the development of the KM band mask.<br />
<br />
Since Widolf patented his designs, my captions from Lundy's book regarding the development of the KM band mask and pictures of masks that pre-date the KMB would certainly not be in KMs best<br />
interests. Someone might come along who could challenge KM claims to copyright on several of their products...and we can't have that now can we.
