Found these old train ticket envelopes in the lodge today. Used by the late, Nestor Mambourg , owner of the Mambourg lodge built in the late 1930's, which is now my home.

Nestor Mambourg invented "Bullet proof glass, and sandwich glass, used in automotive windshields. He had 37 patents on glass / glass machinery inventions that he had made during his years with Libby-Owens-Ford Glass. He was the Tech Advisor for glass factories around America and had even traveled to Japan to help with their productions. Nestor traveled by train for weeks at a time from factory to factory. Claimed as a "Glass Genious" by his piers.
