Hi, I am putting a post card up that I got with one of the manuals that I have.  It was never filled out.  Also, a picture of a page from an old City of La Crosse, WI - directory.  The directory is from 1948 and this is page 3 of the Manufacturing part of the directory.  Enjoy...

Well-------- I didnt know that they had a plant in Norwood, Ohio! What did they make there? What was the address? I have been to the GM assembly plant in Norwood several times years ago....(theres always so much to learn....) Anybody have any info?
sometimes I walk out to my shop and look around and think "Who's the idiot that owns this place?"

Ted,

I'm an hour South of La Crosse and my wife works up there.  I've often wondered where the AC La Crosse plant was.   Do you know?  My guess was by the river North of Gundersen but I don't know.  It'd be neat if some of the buildings were there and in use.
