Description :

I worked @ Charles Moore for approx 2 years in the office. I remember my first boss Mr Drake & I think the girl I worked under was Gina Pelosi. It must have been about the time of Vietnam war as I remember office staff member was engaged to a soldier and he surprised her when I he came home on leave. I remember the mezzanine floor and, not sure what it was called,but we could place info inside the holder & it would shoot from our office to the mezzanine on a wire. I remember the old typewriters, big machines used for accounting. Oh my goodness this has brought back so many memories. My late parents had a stall in the market for as many years as I can remember.

I always loved that staircase. So glad it's still there.
