  • Linen, Section 2, G to Indians
    Arizona, Linen Radio Cards Post Card Collection Section 2—G to Indians-Apache By Al Ring LINEN ERA (1930-1945 (1960?) New American printing processes allowed printing on postcards with a high rag content. This was a marked improvement over the “White Border” postcard. The rag content also gave these postcards a textured “feel”. They were also cheaper to produce and allowed the use of bright dyes for image coloring. They proved to be extremely popular with roadside establishments seeking cheap advertising. Linen postcards document every step along the way of the building of America’s highway infra-structure. Most notable among the early linen publishers was the firm of Curt Teich. The majority of linen postcard production ended around 1939 with the advent of the color “chrome” postcard. However, a few linen firms (mainly southern) published until well into the late 50s. Real photo publishers of black & white images continued to have success. Faster reproducing equipment and lowering costs led to an explosion of real photo mass produced postcards. Once again a war interfered with the postcard industry (WWII). During the war, shortages and a need for military personnel forced many postcard companies to reprint older views WHEN printing material was available. Photos at 43%.

Philip Mann, Music Director and Conductor of the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra grew up in Durango, Colorado. He attended school on an Indian reservation and lived on a ranch with horses and dogs in the mountains. He started playing the violin at age 5 and the bassoon at age 12 and loved music as a child, but didn’t always like to practice (now he is glad he did). Mr. Mann studied engineering, political science and physics in college, but then decided to make music his life. Mr. Mann chose to learn how to conduct because his step-father was a conductor and teacher. He participated in the Hot Springs Music Festival in 2006 and loves Hot Springs and Little Rock!
