Okay folks I'm still working on this MAP
Consultation.

First I want to apologize to Marie
Malaro for misspelling her name. She was
the head of the Museum Studies Dept. at
GWU when I went there. (I did not learn
to spell my own name until mid-way
through first grade! So maybe I have an
excuse?)

Now to my question-

In some other local history museums I
have worked at, I have encountered the
Rogers Company of Fostoria Ohio. A
company that specialized in local
history Celebrations such as
centennials. They put on large
productions/pa gents in football
stadiums. I know in some cities they
passed out wooden nickels, documents
which made you a "Brother of the Brush"
(meaning you had to grow a beard for the
play) and other items. I'm sure some of
you have encountered similar activities.

Does anyone know if anything has been
written about the Rogers Company? I'd
love a list of towns where they held
pagents? Are they still around?

Again thanks in advance.
