I am willing to be that, collecticely, the alums could generate enough interest in having a Warner & Swasey Museum there in Cleveland. It might have to be an adjunct to some other institution that is now standing, or a college in the area. You guys in that area would have a better idea what such a place may be. I wonder if this idea makes sense to any of you guys.
 
Jack,The Western Reserve Historical Society has been collecting memorabellia(?)for years. Once a year or so they have a seminar on the Warner & Swasey Telescopes,but very little on the Company itself. There are portraits of Worchester Warner and Ambrose Swasey in their Museum. Too bad Steve Lawson isn't around anymore,He sent a great deal of stuff to the Smithsonian Institute and was quite an Historian himself.Perhaps the Western Reserve Historical Society will set up a display someday. I believe you are on the W&S list of people to be notified.
