Going To Mars 350,000,000 Miles in 5 Minutes by Professor Hunt
Professor Everett Hunt's homemade and handmade book, at least a few pages from it. The text consists of a newspaper article with Indiana byline. Several illustrations. Headlines inserted into slots. A bit of indecipherable text. That the article has an April 1 date is, I believe, a coincidence. Date Unknown.

My name is April MacCuish. I am the great granddaughter of Everett Hunt. I would like to speak with Jim Linderman about the notebook.
