Almost 40 yea.rs a.go, in 1937 to be exa.ct, we were given a. "Testimonial
Dinner" by Nev York's industry a.t the late Billy Rose's Casa Ma.nana in
New York City. The Co-Chairmen of the Testimonial Committee were the late
Nat Cohn a.nd Jack Fitzgibbons.
This past month, on March 14, 1975, we were a.gain honored by the men of
old New York during the First Annual neunion luncheon at the Sky Lake C.C,
in North Miami Ileach, Florida. The passing years find these men retired in
7 lorida. Some are still active in the industry.
Among those present were: Irv Sommer, Willie lllatt, Irving Kaye, David
Friedman, Milton Green, llarry Pearl, Jack Mitnick, Theodore Blatt, Charley
Aronson, Joe Mangone, Jack Kaufman, Mike Munvcs, Joe Munves, Abe Green,
Sol Tabb, Dave Stern, Phil Haisen, Max Weiss, Art Herman, Al Herman, Herb
Steinberg, Al Miniaci, Jimmy Johnson, Claude It. Kirk, Sr.
Very humbly, we wish to publicly acknowledge our most sincere appreci-
ation for the great honor extended to us by these gentlemen of Old New
York with whom we have enjoyed enduring friendship over these ma.ny yea.rs
a.nd whom we highly admire and respect with ca.ch passing year, for the
bronze placque with which they awarded our efforts.
We, too, look forward, as do all the above, to the Second Annual lleun-
ion to be held in February, 1976 and pray, most fervently, that all will
be present to again enjoy the warmth of companionship and friendship that
has come into being over these many past years.
