Provenance

Notes

Custodial History: This document and its contents are part of a larger group of records originally owned by Bob Ide, who donated them to the Broomfield Depot Museum in 2012 (see accession 2012.7). He obtained the records from his employer, Transamerica Development Company, in the 1970s after he worked selling many of their assets in the Broomfield area. Transamerica had acquired the documents from Turnpike Land Company in 1964. The Broomfield Company had been a part of Turnpike since 1955.
