Incorrect facts. Corey would have been a very young boy when the 1924 winter carnival took place. Warren was c. 13. Corey wasn't even in this country. The Harrah's Casino comment is highly doubtful. There was one hotel (Abbott) that had "ladies" and the gambling was mainly one arm bandits, poker and roulette. Lardo was named after the post office that Tom McCall moved from Roseberry to McCall pre-1900 , which was relocated to the settlement across the river one mile west of McCall in 1903, which then took the name Lardo. Interestingly, McCall, was also called Lardo, Elo and Lakeport at various times until around 1914. Finally, the picture of Corey was not from McCall. The sign says 'Snow Basin'..Colorado or Utah? Do you find this valuable?
