http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/427266143

This folder contains many letters, as the introductory page states, "presented to Chief Emil A. Johnson on Oct. 10, 1951 as evidence of the esteem in which he is held by his co-workers, friends, public officials and the citizens of a grateful Boulder which he has so well and faithfully served." Among them are signed letters from Colorado governor Dan Thornton, U.S. senators Edwin C. Johnson and Eugene D. Millikin and U.S. congressman William S. Hill. Other letters in the folder are from University of Colorado president Robert L. Stearns, Boulder mayor J. Perry Bartlett, A. A. Paddock of the Boulder Daily Camera, Boulder chief of police Myron M. Teegarden, and many other individuals from around the state and the country. Many of the letters are from fire chiefs of other towns and cities, and from representatives of most of the civic associations of Boulder, Colorado. Most are on letterhead stationery.
