Letter : Columbus, [Ohio], [1935?].

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/56836209

The letter is one typewritten page, undated, concerning Herbert Osborn's upcoming 80th birthday, March 19, 1936. Raymond C. Osburn, chairman of OSU's Dept. of Entomology and Zoology, mentions that since Professor Osborn spends the winter months in Florida, a party is impractical and recommends instead that his colleagues "shower" Osborn with letters. The letter, addressed "Dear Friend," was probably sent to entomologists and entomology departments across the country, to reach Herbert Osborn's many professional colleagues and associates.
