This is being posted in the main section because it seems appropriate, has to do with Pre-War players and is written by one of our esteemed members. He asked for some assistance in posting it, which I am always happy to do for members.

Very cool. My wife is from Athens and we still get back there as often as we can. I'm sure I've gone by the old factory location.

Very interesting article, thanks for posting.
I've also been to Athens several times, working and with my son while he was at UGa.
