Wallace Merle Byam
Thanks for stopping by and taking time out of your day to read my post. My intent is to put a smile on your face. Hopefully you’ll go away with some information you may have forgotten about or did not know. Now sit back and enjoy.
Wally was born in Baker City, Oregon back in 1896. When he was young he traveled with his grandfather on a mule train. As he grew he worked as a shepherd and lived in a two-wheeled shepherd’s cart. All he had to survive in the cart was a kerosene cook stove, a sleeping bag and a wash pail. He signed up with the merchant marines, studied law at Stanford University, owned an advertising agency and became a magazine publisher….. WOW! Not that, that was enough can you tell me what he will go down in the history books for?
Well he was the founder of the Airstream Trailer Company. The company is still in operation today being bought out by Thor Industries , which is the largest travel trailer manufacturer in the world.
