Gertrude Stein Resources

Here's a listing of the interesting Gertrude Stein resources I've found on the Web thus far. I'm especially fond of the gURL magazine recreation of her salon and the reactions of North Side Pittsburghers to their famous homegirl. And don't miss the entire text of Tender Buttons online.
