Title
Correspondence from client Dean Fransell to Peggy Skycraft
Description
This letter refers to marbled paper made by Peggy Skycraft for Dean Fransell’s kaleidoscope business. The collage-like letter with paper samples for matching and ordering, as well as Fransell’s commentary, is one of many such resources to be found in Skycraft’s archive in the Paper Legacy Collection. Fransell, who worked for General Mills, also hired Skycraft to demonstrate the marbling of food, including lasagna.
