Cuvaison 50th anniversary: Napa Valley Wine Library Association letter

Fifty years ago, my father, Thomas R. Parkhill, co-founded Cuvaison winery in Napa Valley, California along with Thomas Cottrell. Recently, I found an interesting piece of realia from that bit of family history, a letter from the Napa Valley Wine Library Association inviting Dad to be a member. (For those not familiar with the wine library, it’s in the Saint Helena Public Library.) The letter also mentions an article about Cuvaison in the St. Helena Star; wouldn’t that be neat to track down!

(The Saint Helena Public Library has digitized issues of the St. Helena Star from 1874-2014; view them at https://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/serial?id=sthelenastar)
