Only your work is far better than what I have done. <br /> When you wrote about Jacob Schmidlapp: "Washington Terrace, Walnut Hills, a development of more than 400 homes he built to house working class African-Americans, “in whose welfare he was deeply interested.” Said an observer: “His model homes form the most outstanding effort along this line in the country.” Jacob also was a trustee and contributor to Cincinnati’s McCall Colored Industrial School." who suffered from exceptional personal tragedy but rose to be one of the most influential, I believe you may have even been a bit short in ;the praise he deserves for actually creating and financing Washington Terrace. I started researching a tobaco pipe several years ago and am in process of trying to add additional information about this exceptional man and the legacy he left us. From what I can determine, his efforts toward racial equality from a time of great racial division may be unparalleled. I created a web page at https://statlerpiqua.wordpress.com/home/schmidlapp-pipe/ and hope you might find it interesting. The images on the pipe which was a gift of his brother were of his mother and father. Being the current caretaker of this unusual artifact, I hope to make sure that it is fully documented for future caretakers. My contact information can be found on my web site. Again thanks for a great article as there is much information I had not found when I was last revising in 2019.

Long time missing your articles...Mr. Jack Sullivan <br />Long time missing your articles, especially those that dealt with our interest in pre-pro collectables. Nothing but praise from all of us for your years of tremendous research on getting the history documented in a platform we enjoy reading. I am still collecting the advertising jugs of all sizes from VA down to Fla, always on the hunt to upgrade or add something new to the shelf.<br />I want to express my gratitude for your diligence to our hobby - a Big Thank You! Wish you and your family the best.

Loved the pieces on Uncle Sam's association with alcohol advertising. Hope you and yours are safe and well, thank you for your blog :)DBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09670240923386415160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4158406346037964376.post-70396193133433066122022-02-05T09:35:28.677-08:002022-02-05T09:35:28.677-08:00Some of us are (very) late to your party…but still...Some of us are (very) late to your party…but still found it enjoyable!
