Issue #5 (Oct. 1, 1957) Trampolines in Bermuda

"The Nissen's" trampoline act (George Nissen, Frank LaDue, Annie Nissen and Dagmar Nissen) travel to Bermuda for a week of daily shows held on the grounds of the famous Eagle's Nest Hotel.
Plus, a winner is finally announced for the "name our paper" contest!

Trampoline cartoons begin to appear in the newsletters!
We met William P. Whipple (Bill) who would become a well-known face around the factory for many years to come; as he handled the company's insurance coverage.

"Newsy" news around the factory...mentioning now familiar names: Bob Bevenour, Stella Minehart and Ted Blake.

Do these newsletters spark a memory? You are invited to share your own stories and comments below.
