Default Wayside Inn!

Leon, thanks so much for posting this edition. My wife and I were very excited to see the part about the Kimball's Album, Wayside inn and Snowbound that features the works of Longfellow.
Longfellow's Wayside Inn is a few miles from our home over the line in Sudbury. This is where our daughters and my wife went to High School.
We used to dine there all the time. We really enjoyed taking guests and relatives there for a great meal over the years. My wife would get a laugh when I tipped the bartender with 1952 Bowman cards! (he was a customer and preferred the cards for a tip). It was great to see Sudbury 's Wayside inn mentioned on the Kimball Album!
It would be a treat to see the Wayside Inn on a card or the album mentioned!
Thanks again for sharing! These are great and not offered too often.
I remember seeing a complete run of them in Lew lipset's auction years ago. I believe in ran from the mid 40's thru early 1981.
Take care,
Bill Hedin
