So now at age 97, Dad the Civil/Structural P.E. has finally decided to retire and tasked me with closing down the office of more than 50 years. The things that you find while manning the shredder, some you'd rather keep and frame than shred.
So I ask him about this invoice. He tells me that Mr. May and his boys kept visiting his office trying to sell him a calculator. He told them at the time he didn't have the money to purchase the calculator, but they persisted in selling him one anyway. So finally they drop the calculator off with him to try for a couple of weeks. When they return he tells them it is a nice piece of equipment, but I just can't afford it......however........ I do have a really nice little car outside in the parking lot and......well the rest is history!
