Letters to Pearl

"Letters to Pearl"
NC mountains
by artist Robin Surber


Efird's Department Store:  where my grandmother, Sue Monteith Alexander, worked in downtown Charlotte, NC


I would love to know more about the Hotel Tulluck in Sanford, NC.  Until viewing these works, I had never heard of this Hotel.


Letter to Mrs. Pearl Parrish Long, who lived in Charlotte.  
I wonder if my grandmother knew her.

Postmark, 1933.  The paintings have glass bottles above the canvas with messages in them.  I didn't include the full bottle in the photos.  I think the bottles contain the letters from the envelope featured.
