Nude beach freedom letter
Letter
One page typed letter signed twice by Edna Steinmetz and dated 16 July 1987. In the letter, Ms. Steinmetz points out the hypocrisy of townspeople supporting freedom for McDonalds to open a hamburger franchise in downtown Saugatuck but decrying people sunbathing naked on the beaches (likely referring to the nude beach north of Oval Beach.) Conclusion refers to (the absence of) freedom in Russia.
