Scope and content
On October 30, 1937, a Halloween barn dance was held at the Tacoma Country & Golf Club. Among the partygoers gathered around the bar were Caroll Carstens (second from left), Ed Griffin (fourth man from left), Tom Carstens (in cowboy hat), and Bud Doherty (second from right). The walls of the bar are papered with stock certificates. This decorating idea was the brainchild of Club president Harry K. Todd. The walls are papered with about 8 million dollars worth of stock certificates from businesses and ventures that did not work out. (T.Times, 11-30-1937, Society, p. 11).
