In my usual fashion, I cannot help but dive into something (research wise) when a debate or question comes about. I just wanted to share some neat info I found while looking into the whole George Close debacle. Below is a short biography on George Close and even a faded picture. Also a picture of the candy factory. I am not sure if the picture of the factory is before or after the fire? I apologize if the info below is redundant or "common knowledge". Hopefully its useful to someone!
