Mahogany was Wood & Humidity

[Ward & Probst]

Hi Richard,

There is the fabled Storytone laminated board which had mahogany faces. A
product of Story & Clark for some years.
I hope you all have a happy and prosperous year!
Something that has helped our prosperity is attendance at the Annual
Convention and Institute. Not only have we increased our income, we have met
many good people who have shared their talents with us. Hope many of ya'll
can do the same in Reno.

See ya there,
Dale
