Original notes:
Mailing envelope sent from Red Bluff Brewing Co. in California to Mr. R.A. Mueller; originally contained photos of brewery. Envelope was significantly deteriorated, but there was a hand-drawn map on the front that looks to be a sketch of the M-H Airport runway. This has been photocopied and scanned. The copy is filed with the photos.
