Branch 9 of the Early Day Gas Engine and Tractor Association
will host the National Meeting at their regularly scheduled annual
show on June 17 and 18, 1989, at Pottsville, near Grants Pass,
Oregon. Pottsville is an old time town created and built by Senator
E.D. ‘Debbs’ Potts in 1959 in celebration of the Oregon
Centennial. The town consists of several buildings including a
church, store, library, assay office, laundry, and blacksmith shop.
Recently Senator Potts, better known as ‘Debbs’, built two
new structures which house his lifetime collection of Oregon
Memories, along with the structures built in ’59, which he now
calls Old Town. (See show report in May 1989 issue.)
