Mike, I'm not THE paper guy but I have my fair share of it thanks to him and his mentor. That is a cool and well-preserved letter from Mr. Nolan. Given the age, I might put it in a plastic protector or something with the envelope if it accompanies the letter. Very cool.

It came with a 1956 catalog that is equally "crisp"..looks like they were mailed together, but no envelope!

That is also a good example of how early Ed Nolan took over PR duties.
I once had a letter from October 1956 that was signed by WBR in regards to a customer question about their single shot tip up as well as how soon the new .44 Blackhawk would be out.
