    Ok, I will try this. Even though this is a Ford document, I found some of the details fascinating, starting with the one cent postage

    Interesting stats.

    Wonder id Ford was close with Edison, hence the use of DC power in his plants.

    Ford, Edison, George Westinghouse, and Alex Graham Bell used to vacation together, as I remember reading in the Ford biography.

    Bob,

    Correct. They all had winter homes in the same area on Jekyll Island, GA.

    Jekyll Island is a really interesting place. I’ve spent many weekends there while down at FLETC in Brunswick, GA. I was even able to snag one of the last original neckties from the Jekyll Island Club before they all sold out. They used to run around there with little red bug cars.
