Ottor, thanks for writing. I'm really glad you like the letters and I'm envious that you've actually been there. That's very cool! I would guess that makes everything easier to visualize too. Nice to know the old house is still there.
I love collecting things like this - especially letters - because they are so much better than people's memories. The LCA History book written by Chuck Peyser in 1992 has parts that are more accurate than the one written in 1929 because he referenced letters written back and forth among Cole, Mason, and Cross whereas the earlier book went more from memory. When Mason writes he just received the first badge from Hoover & Smith, well there you go.
Oh, I found them on ebay.
ZAX,
Jono
