Scope and Content

letter to H. C. Webb from Fitzgerald & Lee, Inc. signed by R. V. Taylor Transcription: [Letterhead: Fitzgerald & Lee, Inc.] Typed with handwritten note on bottom and right side June 16, 1936 Dr. E,C. Webb, Eckel Theater Bldg., Syracuse, N.Y. Dear Dr. Webb: Lindsay brought your boat down this morning and we discovered it is upholstered on the inside of the cockpits as well as the cushions and back. In submitting our figure of the cost to you, we did not include this in, but no doubt you would want this done as the boat would not look well as it is. To do this complete with the interior and rolls rolls around the edges of the cockpit it would cost an additional $25.00 Some models of this boat were finished in mahogany and varnished instead of the imitation. The writer thought your boat was this way when the estimate was given. Kindly advise us regarding this. Very truly yours, Fitzgerald & Lee, Inc. signed by R. V. Taylor writing: All right-perhaps ot may be better not to take off upholstery that is on seats until the leather has arrived and ready for your work I might use your boat
