VTT: An old directory


I found this piece at an old suit case. Made from 1939 a good entry for my Vintage Thingy Thursday.

  2. Why lookie there! It is from Beloit, Wisconsin!!!! That makes it doubly good - - - well, the Wisconsin part anyway, although Beloit seems to be a pretty little town too.

  6. Don't you just love the language in old documents--a bit archaic and flowery, yet business like!

  7. Wow, how cool. We also had a Fairbanks Morse here in Kansas City in the 1950- -1970's. It was located in the Fairfax district which was a section for manufacturing. Great find.

  9. This is cool...now I want a peek inside! Beloit is about 90 miles from where I live. Interesting how things get around!
