Description

This April 1931 letter from Frances Goodrich to Southern Mountain Handicraft Guild secretary, Helen Dingman, is a response to Dingman's missives about the Guild accepting Goodrich's offer to take over the Allanstand Cottage Industries business. Goodrich humbly accepts accolades for building the thriving cottage industry, but also recognizes the credit due to her shop managers, Harriet Wilkie and Jean S. Fuller. Helen Dingman was employed by Berea College and served as the Guild's secretary during the 1930s. The Southern Mountain Handicraft Guild became the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild which continues to manage the Allanstand craft shop.
