THE BALLOON MAN

FROM BILLY MARTIN:

HEY DICK: SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR LEG PROBLEMS - BEST TO GET THEM TAKEN CARE OF. I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST. MISSED YOU IN YORK THIS YEAR AT THE FAIR. ALREADY PLANNING FOR NEXT YEAR'S SHOW THERE, SO YOU PLAN ON IT, TOO. THINGS ARE FALLING INTO PLACE FOR THE ANNUAL COLE TOUR OPENING JANUARY 4. ATTACHED ARE THE NEW POSTER AND FREE KIDS TICKET. HARD TO BELIEVE ITS GOING INTO THE 25TH YEAR DOING THIS. MR COLE FOUNDED THE SHOW DURING THE 1937-38 WINTER, SO I AM TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE "75TH ANNIVERSARY" THEME.

WILL KEEP YOU POSTED WITH ACT INFO, OPENING DAY, ETC. IN THE MEANTIME, TAKE CARE FROM ALL OF US IN UP-STATE NY (WHERE THERE IS NO SNOW YET - AND NO SIGNS OF IT FOR THE NEXT WEEK OR SO!)

BILLY

Thanks Billy!
