Notes:
Card was found in attic vermiculite when it was being removed during 2001 to allow rewiring of the Parke family home at 1544 Pine Street in downtown Juneau. The card had fallen below the attic flooring where it remained preservd for approximately 48 years. The card was sent by Janice May Williams to Gail Parke — both were about 7 years of age. Janice's father Dean Williams worked for Pan American in Juneau. The family was on vacation in the "States."
