Recollections of Otto W. Glandt; 1910 to 1918.
Otto Glandt was a prominent member of the Bennington Community. He was the son of C.W. Glandt who was an early businessman in Bennington. His father owned several businesses that included a cement block factory, he built hen crates, sold insurance and farm equipment and built many of the first homes in town. Otto was born in 1906 in Bennington. For Bennington's 1992 celebration he authored a 2 page description of his childhood memories of growing up. They are narrated on the following video along with old photographs of some of those sites (https://youtu.be/H9MzD7Qh3Fw).
