Historical December 1995 article. Dates, prices, services and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
As a special gift to our financial supporters of THE TIMES this holiday season, contributors of $ 20 or more will receive a FREE POSTER.
This incentive is possible due to the generosity of the West End Arts Council, which helped with printing, and Andy Cross, the artist who drew this outstanding poster commemorating the 25th Anniversary of THE TIMES.
The poster, which was unveiled at the CWE Bank at the “25th Anniversary” party in honor of THE TIMES, features landmarks and scenes from the neighborhood.
All the area churches are prominent, as is Washington University, the Central West End Bank, Wabash Station. There’s a scene to remind us of the Forest Park Balloon Race, and some “street scenes”, with our comfortable porches, complete with neighbors talking and children playing.
All in all, a lovely reminder of our neighborhood and the places we know and love.
If we receive your contribution of $ 20 or more by December 22, the poster will be hand-delivered to your door in time for Christmas giving.
Please note the little red printed envelope in this issue of THE TIMES, and, if you are able, send us a small donation. Include your name, so that we can acknowledge your gift in THE TIMES.
The Board thanks all our supporters for their loyalty and enthusiasm throughout the year.
From our “Trivia Night” to our “New Neighbors” celebrations, we have felt renewed energy and spirit of neighborliness. And with our 25th Year of continuous publication inspiring us, we look forward to involving even more of you in reading, writing and distributing THE TIMES. Happy Holidays!
