Scope and content
It took more than one cake for all the candles commemorating prominent Seattle banker Joshua Green's birthday; Mr. Green celebrated his 100th birthday in advance at Reno Odlin's No. Alki home on August 2, 1969. Mr. Green, Chairman of the Board of Peoples National Bank, was attending the Washington State Historical Society's annual Board of Curators meeting. He was presented a century plant. Mr. Odlin, Chairman of the Board of Puget Sound National Bank and Historical Society board chairman, was a longtime friend of Mr. Green's and rode with him in the Tacoma Centennial Parade in late June. The Washington State Historical Society honored Mr. Odlin with a special book collection to be placed in the society's museum. Photograph ordered by Washington State Historical Society.
