Anyone know where to find a pretty deep (to about 4:05 or so) list of all-time fastest prep mile times?

That picture is clearly a piece of American History. Where could one get a copy with all 4 autographs? Letsrun could make lots of money. Or maybe dyestat or T&FN?
That list is NOT up to date. Sam Borchers of Ohio ran 4:03.33 this year and is not on the list. How many others are missing??
dyestat doesn't need to make money. they're hooked up to nike's teat.
I am missing. 4:12.7 Ohio State meet 4:11.? Keebler Inv. '88
That list is good, but doesn't appear to have been updated for about 4 years.

I actually have one. A glossy pic of all 4 sub 4 min HS milers with each one signing. How much do you think it's worth?
Paul Geis is missing. He ran 4:12 in 1971.

It was last updated January of 2004, hence the date at the top of the page. I'm sure someone could look online and find out how many guys ran sub 4:05 in the 3 outdoor seasons since then.

yeeeahh! go hubers!
This list can't be that good - I am still on it - and ranked too high - almost 30 years gone by....
Jack Bolas ran a 4:04 1600 at the state meet in 06
Evan Jager ran 4:05 last year at the NON mile, there seems to be a lot of runners missing from that list

You should email Hoffman with those updates. His address is at the bottom of the page.
I sent Hoffman an email about Paul Geis running 4:12 in the Houston Astrodome in 1971. I never got a reply, Geis is still not on the list.
There used to be a big indoor meet in the Astrodome. I looked for the race on the Internet, but couldn't find it.
I should correct my run on sentence: I never got a reply, AND Geis is still not on the list.
Actually, it's a comma splice. A run-on sentence would not have a comma. It would just be two independent clauses joined without punctuation or a conjunction.
