Frank Shooster and Sons Incorporated Ninth Street, Flower to Edward Chester, PA September 9, 1943 Dear Herm,
How’s everything? Doing well, I hope. What was the reaction of the Ital- ian prisoners to the Italian surrender? I understand that you are now a capitalist. I hope you have sense enough to refrain from being a soft touch. Pop has returned from his vacation. Ida and I spent Labor Day weekend in New York. Believe it or not I closed the station 6 o’clock Sat evening and didn’t open until the following Tuesday. We stayed at the Hotel Lincoln. I had to wait in line three quarters of an hour to register. All the hotels were sold out. We saw, “DuBarry Was a Lady” at the Capi- tol Theatre - Horace Heidt in person — swell band. We had dinner at a Jewish restaurant on the east side and who do you think we bumped into — Zero Mostel, one of the comedy stars of the picture, which we had seen only several hours previously.
