Description
The Bert C. Chambers letters with Rudolph Ruzicka contain approximately 80 pieces of correspondence from the 1930’s to the 1970’s.

Ruzicka discusses printing and design jobs of interest to both men as well as his summer vacations at Hartland, Greensboro, and Quechee, Vermont and his daughter’s, Tatiana and Veronica, lives and work.
