All, Does anyone know where I MIGHT be able to locate any information on the Wahlgreen Publishing company of Denver, CO?? This company published my 2 volume book set on the Moffat Tunnel, circa 1927! Any information and/or leads much appreciated! Thanks.

A limited issue of this De Luxe Edition has been printed from Kenntonian type by Wahlgreen Publishing Company of Denver, Colorado. George A. Levy, Director of Exploitation. Price: $350.00 Is this what you're asking about?
No. I already have signed copy #11. With personal message from author to younger brother. Christmas Day, 1927! I'd like to know more about the company that published the book.
I'm glad you added that second post - I was wondering how old you must be to have had a book published in 1927
With the state of my health today,if I were alive back in the 1920's, I'd be dead by now. Did find, elsewhere, that the author of the set died in 1953. Also wondered, how many leather bound, gold leaf copies were printed? The latest set I know of, is in Denver Public Library, Copy 386.
