I used

to group backgrounds. Regarding the dresser, it turns out there are two dressers. The one in the pictures with green walls is different from the dresser in the other pictures. I found the first dresser with three different backgrounds:
CHEST OF DRAWERS
#29 Girl with headset and eyes closed
#45 Girl with headset against record collection stand
#52 Girl with headset wearing headset
#69 Girl in blue P coat pointing finger
#70 Very blond wearing headset (very clear picture of dresser)
#73 Other very blond girl
#76 Very blond girl holding headset
This is the apartment with white walls and the record collection, gray rug. I think this is his apartment in New York from the period Sept 25, 1968 to Aug 12, 1971 when he was a student at NYU. I base this on the fact that it looks like a typical student's apartment. He has possessions.
WHITE WALL APARTMENT MAY BE SAME AS WITH FIREPLACE
#115 Androgynous blond short hair, in brown chair, dresser on left
#121 Androgynous blond, brown chair with dresser
#137 Androgynous girl against beige door and bookcase
$141 Androgynous girl against beige door and bookcase
173 Androgynous blond in front of beige door (or gray door)
Not many possessions, bare look. May be after June 1977.
WHITE WALLS WITH FIREPLACE
#110 brown haired girl with necklace
#116 brown haired girl with necklace
#122 brown haired girl with necklace, tiger print on wall
May be after June, 1977, looks the same as the white walls, beige door apt.
#160 Brunette smiling in white blouse
Can see the dresser but not much else, except the table which I have not found in any other apartment. So may be post 1977
GREEN WALLS after June 1977
#33 Long wavy haired dishwater blond
#113 Redhead with long hair and freckles, yellow sleeveless blouse
#183 Long wavy haired dishwater blond in blue halter top
#188 Redhead with long hair and freckles and necklace, no blouse, dresser
#189 Redhead/close-up of dresser
#196 Redhead against green wall
#197 Redhead against green wall
#208 Redhead against dresser
#227 Redhead against green wall
#228 Girl with long brown hair against green wall
This is a different dresser. The background is very sparse and neat looking. I have wondered if this might be the apartment he shared with his mother sometime after 1977. It may be the girls apartment. If so he filmed three different girls there.
The apartment with blue walls and brick with geometric print curtain does not show the dresser. I think this is also a New York apartment from 1968-1971. I base this on the cluttered student look. Has some of the same possessions as the apartment with white walls, record collection, dresser. Maybe this was his first New York apartment and he had not acquired the dresser yet.
Grouping these by location might be helpful in narrowing the search for these girls by the years for these apartments. Articles about him talk about his East Village apt. or his Sixth St. apartment but I am unable to find a complete address. I would think they are referring to the apt. with blue walls and brick or the apt. with white walls and prominent record collection.
This was so tedious my eyes are crossing and by now I'm not sure I am making any sense at all. :waitasec:
