Manuscripts
The manuscript, which was written as a tribute to Earl H. Richardson, covers the entire history of Richardson's work with electric appliances. Starting with his first invention of the Hotpoint iron and opening his own company in 1906, it continues through General Electric's purchase of the company in 1927 and his death in 1934. The author, who had worked for Richardson for over thirty years, includes details about Richardson's life, his various inventions, the company's operations and employees, the growth of the company, and the history of Ontario, California. Also included is an obituary for Earl H. Richardson. The manuscript is illustrated with photographs.
