The interesting thing about that letter is that it appears to be addressed to someone with the last name of Bataglia in Barrington, Illinois. I grew up not far from Barrington and knew a number of people with that last name growing up. It would really be interesting to track them down again and see if the recipient was a family member of theirs. Great letter!!

On a side note that is totally unrelated to this thread except that it pertains to Barrington, Barrington Illinois is where Baby Face Nelson bought it in a gun battle with 2 federal officers. Odly enough, there is a McDonalds there today!!
