Edna Schuligoj gives her thanks for all the shade commentary

Thanks to everyone for the input. I do have both the books on lamp shades, that’s why I am not sure whether they are Quezal or Steuben. I will keep looking!

But, Edna, the commentary isn’t over with. For example, John Styler of Prospect Heights, Illinois reflects.

In reply to Gwen, I frequented the Wagon Wheel many times when in Detroit on business. It was one of those fabulous places. As far as Gulliver’s, well it was just South of Evanston where we lived. Its neighborhood changed for the worst as did the Wagon Wheel’s and Gulliver’s changed hands. His daughter kept many on the fixtures etc. with the sale and I believe Leslie Hindman Auction house disposed of them. I was able to get one of the marble busts; Beatrice, since I was with Beatrice Foods I had to have it. Those were the days!

I think we’ve been down this road before.

All of this is about memories. So, Scott Hansen shows he has good recall when he tells us how we can find more on Gulliver’s

Alan –

I can’t believe we may repeat ourselves – You might make note in the next Gazette that Gwen can look at Gazettes 853, 854 and 855 for Gulliver’s memories.
