Destination outline for ZRS sales trip, c.1940: operations

Abstract

This item is part of a series of operational records from the Zoological Research Supply Company, including reports from sales representatives on meetings with customers and related records, such as correspondence. The ZRS served as the profit-making subsidiary of the Bass Biological Laboratory, and operated in the mid to late 1930s and early 1940s. This item, presumably written by J. Lear Grimmer, outlines the five 'base stops' and individual destinations of the ZRS salesmen. The list mentions that unless a special stop is warranted, all universities and laboratories visited are south of the Mason-Dixon line.
