Over the past two years the Texas Historical
Foundation has increased the volume
and content of the HERITAGE from a
four-page newsletter tabloid to a professional
journal, expanded to contain historic
research, folklore, conservation
notes and restoration projects around the
state.
Early in 1985 distribution of the HERITAGE
included, in addition to THF

in the Austin/San Antonio corridor.
With the advent of a growing audience

a continued effort to upgrade the literary
and graphic contents with a continued expansion
of membership contributions, donations
and support from a growing
constituency.
Sincerely,
The Editors

pieces of outdoor statuary?
This type of inventory has been done in
many different states, and I feel Texas is
