Review of Gebhard Thesis
Interleaved note: Data for Dave [Gebhard] (October 24, 1955)
DATA FOR DAVE I HAVE JUST NOTICED for the first time that George did not begin to number projects as George G. Elmslie, Architect, until 1924. I have from time to time touched upon the very gradual character of our separation of the partnership, business and personal, but until I began to make the new 5 x 8 index complete and accurate, I did not realize that our professional contacts extended until 1924; in many relations, as you know, there was never, nor could there be, a total separation. NOTE IN CONCLUSION: Since George began his numbering system with #250, his personal operations will be found clearly designated to distinguish them from early Purcell, Feick and Elmslie of the same numbers.
