"Crazy Hotel Opens"

Date: 1994-03-10
Creator: unknown
Description: CRAZY HOTEL OPENS: Program Presented by A.F. Weaver to the Mineral Wells Heritage Association March 10, 1994. [This is the first of ten pages, stapled at upper left-hand corner.] The text was probably computer-generated in 13-point sans-serif script and it is likely that Mr. Weaver began his program with a contemporary newspaper account of the gala opening of the re-built hotel. Certainly the opening of the significant hotel was a red letter day in the history of Mineral Wells. Photocopies of a souvenir menu was laminated on the back of Mr. Weaver's prepared program.]
