We needed to promote Bob Lewis, Anderson Lithograph and Appleton Papers using photos of a Fireman’s Parade taken by Bob in 1974. We tried to document the event just as the Ramsey Fire Department would. Bob’s photographs were paired with descriptions of the event found in the RFD records. (We had hoped to find out more about the event from the fire department, but most of its records were burned by an arsonist in 1981.) Crops were inexact, colors were faded and the words were typed with an old Olympia SM typewriter.
