I did this video presentation for my local club after spending about 50 hours doing discovery and research on our club's long history.

The presentation was PowerPoint (some supporting animations from other apps) and illustrates some of the potential that can be tapped into using this application.

I dug out over 450 different sources and put a summary of them on the club's website here http://ashevillestampclub.org/history/1920.html

I enjoyed seeing the progression in style, of cars and buildings over time. Always fun to see.

Also John Fox .

The SPA photo is cool, I wonder what well-known persons are in it?

I know that Max Johl attended this meeting, not sure if he is in the image.


The Club also had close ties to the Asheville/Biltmore postmasters and would often get them to allow questionable franking (like the bi-sects shown below) to be mailed.
