Roy F. Wilcox Co. Montebello, Calif.

Gentlemen:

I have just completed my final inspection of the landscape treatment of the State of California section of the Golden Gate International Exposition in pre¬ paration of my final report to the Commission and I cannot refrain from telling you how pleased I have been with both the plants and services which you furnished.

In almost every instance your prices were lower than those of competitive bidders. The work of your organization and the deliveries of stock, both by rail car loads and by trucks, were all that could be asked and far more prompt and efficiently handled than I had expected under the trying conditions made unavoidable by the schedule of building operations and the shortness of time.

The high quality of the stock and its condition on arrival need no better testimonial than the fact that nearly every tree, shrub and plant is thriving today after eight months of the most trying weather and soil conditions. In fact, out of more than 100,000 plants, only 27 were rejected, which you replaced without question, adding some fifty specimens for good measure.

It seems strange that during thirty years of practice in landscape archi¬ tecture, mostly on the Pacific Coast, I should have had no dealings with the Roy F. Wilcox Company until the problem of the California section of the Golden Gate International Exposition arose. This I deeply regret, for it has been as great a loss to me and my clients as it has to your company.

In sincere gratitude for your splendid cooperation, I beg to remain,

MD:ldg

Cordially your^, , /j
