City of Charleston, Illinois . . . Booklet Promoting Charleston. This Was My Grandpa Hutton’s Copy

Following are the first 5 pages of a book that I found that was my Grandfather’s, P. B. Hutton, City Commissioner.  I will be posting 5 pages at a time until the entire booklet is posted.

This is the Cover of the Booklet.  

This booklet is held together by those wire brads that you spread apart to close the book.  They are showing in the picture below.  It is a neat little booklet.

I wish that this was dated.

You could probably figure out the date of the booklet from the information on this page. My father, George “Bun” Hutton, worked for the New York Central Railroad that is mentioned here.

I like that it says, “You will find a grand welcome here”.

The next five pages will be posted on April 17, 2019.  Thank you for your interest and your comments are welcome.
