Description
A letter from E.C. Day in Paso Robles, California to Edwin G. Hart in Los Angeles, California. 25 November 1913.
A written letter on letter head for Paso Robles Hot Springs. E.C. Day is asking for prices of North Whittier Heights. He would like 3 to 5 acres, if the price is right. He would like a plot as far from the main road and railroad as possible. He would also like land that is flat enough for irrigation. Mr. Day is planing to grow tobacco because it doesn't take much water and he believes the climate and soil is right.
The top of the letter head has an image of a multi-storied building. Below the image reads "Paso Robles Hot Springs / Paso Robles, California. To the left is a note that this is Americas famous inland watering resort. To the right is the name of the manager, Frank W. Sawyer. Above the photo reads "Where the Waters, Baths and Climate Excel / Golf, Tennis, Horseback Riding, and Every Variety of Outdoor Amusement."
There are heavy creases from the letter being folded, abrasion damage along the top, silverfish damage in the top left corner, water damage on the right side, and the back has abrasion damage along the folds. This object is in fair condition overall.
