Joe Howlett -
Entrepreneur & Proud Citizen of Auburn.
We received four sketches this month from
Jimmy Burgher for which we are very grateful. The story behind these
sketches is: they were the brain child of the late Joe Howlett (one-time
owner and chairman of Auburn Leather), who felt so strongly about
uplifting the image and appearance of Auburn that he got the TVA to
commission these sketches. They were commissioned under the auspices of
"TVA TOWNLIFT, Auburn, Kentucky."
Wouldn't it be nice if the "powers that
be" would take this example and follow through with Joe's vision -
Auburn's Urban Renewal.

This is one of of the Sketches depicting the - Clerk's
office, Mayor's office & Police Station
