The Monday After: Event to revisit Dueber-Hampden - Canton, OH
http://www.cantonrep.com/stark/canton/x1599842525/The-Monday-After-Hoover-Historical-Center-event-revisits-Dueber-Hampden
To be directed by fellow 149er's and goodguys Bob Arnold & Bob Kerr, and also 28 member Ed Thouvenin. If I can shimmy out of work I will be in attendance and displaying my New Yorks and early Hampdens. Any serious collectors in the Canton area should really make it a point to attend this once-in-a-lifetime Hampden Exposition. There will be 3 rooms, each dedicated to the separate portions of Hampden's history - the early New York / Springfield days, the Canton Golden Era, and then finally the Russian demise.
Any questions can be directed towards Bob Arnold or myself.
Thanks,
Bryan |

I have his personal watch. Which is a Hampden with a Ball dial. This was verified by ball records as well as Ball's former secretary. If I can get to the bank in enough time I will photograph the watch and send the pictures to you. A very busy time for me, but I will try my best.

Ron, that's great! If you can pull it off either post the photos here or you can send them to me at bdeyring@hotmail.com. Were there going to be notable Balls at this thing I would enjoin you to come up and join in but I know you are a very busy man.
Thanks again and look forward to seeing this great piece!
Regards,
Bryan |

| Yes, I remember that Hampden well as I acquired it from the remains of the Col Townsend collection. |

| A good time was had by all at last night's presentations and display. The effort reportedly boasted over 300 visitors with a line of people out the door and clear to the back of the house. Here are some photos of the people who made it happen and their displays. |

| Unfortunately no remarkable finds. We did have the grandson of the final Treasurer pop into a local meeting a year ago with some protos, some of which I took photos of. I will look and see if I can't find them.... |
