Fine, Eben G., 1865-1957.

Eben Fine, known by some as "Mr. Boulder," gave more than 5,000 speeches around the U.S., showing his slides of Colorado and promoting the region as a tourist's paradise. He estimated that over 1 million people in 31 states had heard his presentations. His audiences ranged from a handful of people to 3,000; most of his talks were to service groups and schools. He began promoting Colorado after 2 employees of the Burlington railroad heard him address the National Druggist Assn.
