Summary

The Beaver Island Boat Company held a meeting in early 1960 at which its ferry schedule reportedly remained the same as the previous year. The March notice also says schedule cards were ready and three billboards were being built for Charlevoix highways.

Evidence and limits

The report supplies no meeting date, minutes, schedule card, contract, or advertising invoice. Henry Allen, Karl Erber, and James W. Gallagher are named as visitors for the meeting, but no offices are assigned to them here.

Open questions

  • Can company records establish the 1960 schedule, meeting date, and billboard campaign?
