loginThe Hayden Flour Co. of Tecumseh, Michigan started production back in 1858 and lasted until 1951 though the big building was used for other purposes throughout the years, finally becoming a community center in 1961.
http://historictecumseh.org/history/haydens/Perry mailed his card on August 28, 1942 while World War Two was going on. Aside from the war, several other things happened on that day.
1. The 9th NFL Chicago All-Star Game was held and the Chicago Bears beat the All-Stars by a score of 21 to nothing.
2. Gunther Hagg from Sweden set a world record for the 3,000m. race by clocking a time of 8:01.2.
3. Transport #25 departed with French Jews to nazi-Germany. (I guess item number three had something to do with the war.)
