Five-page, typewritten letter addressed to Glenn Condon of KRMG radio station in Tulsa, OK, from Port L. Reichard of Tulsa, OK, dated February 12, 1963. Reichard recounts his reminiscences to Condon of his early days in Tulsa, beginning in September 1912. Some of the individuals Reichard mentions includes the following: S. Maxwell Smith, Tom Herrick, Lilburn Carl Clark, Ben Vance, and Rupert Otis McClintock. The letter also recalls the locations and owners of many downtown Tulsa businesses. Reichard also includes his memories of vaudeville acts in Tulsa. He states, "I remember seeing an act here more than once billed as Cora Youngblood Corson. She had an all-girl orchestra including a beautiful sister who later threw herself away on a reporter, I believe." Reichard makes the last mark in jest, as Condon was the reporter who married Eula Youngblood Corson.
