Historical NoteReturn to Top
Tom Lewiston, of the Seattle Worker Center, appears to be the originator of most of these files. Most of the folder labels are written in a single hand, but it is not evident at this point whether that is Tom Lewiston's handwriting. News article reports that Lewiston was coordinator of the SWC as of May 1988 (http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/archives/1988/8801130898.asp). He is also associated on a piece of correspondence with the Sheet Metal Workers.
