(Bud) Maytag, Jr., heir to the Maytag washing machine family, bought controlling stock from Emil Levin, a Chicago industrialist, at the age of 31. C. A. Myhre resigned his post as president in January of 1959 and Maytag assumed the job. But by 1962, the Goldfield Corporation bought Maytag's majority Frontier shares and Lewis W. Dymond became president. The Goldfield Corporation then sold controlling stock to RKO General, Inc. in 1964 for more than $6.5 million. -http://eadsrv.denverlibrary.org/sdx/pl/doc-tdm.xsp?id=WH989_d0e38&fmt=text&base=fa (3/11/16) Maytag Buys Control Of Frontier Airlines DENVER (UP) Industrialist Louis B. Maytag, Jr., purchased 66 per cent interest Saturday, and gained control of Frontier Airlines, the largest "local carrier" airline in the United States. The 31-year-old Colorado Springs man purchased controlling interest from a Chicago group, headed by Emil Levin. Announcement of the sale was made at Denver's Stapleton Airfield after a meeting of the Frontier board of directors. No purchase price was reported. -April 20, 1958 The Daily Herald from Provo, Utah -https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/6510005/ (3/11/16) Could not find out anything on websearch of FindAGrave.com or the SSDI. A census item notes his birth about 1902. Nothing could be found about his death. Nearly all the results at Google.com involved law cases in which he was involved. Greg Stearn's history of Frontier mentions the Levin - Maytag connection on pages 87 - 88. -Jake Lamkins (3/11/16) FLacebook - FL Club FLight West: Emil Levin DEN board secretay and treasurer Emil Levin's memorial webpage is posted: http://FAL-1.tripod.com/Emil_Levin.html Not much personal info on Emil but he came to Monarch with Hal Darr in 1946. Both were bankers in Chicago and Emil was also an attorney. Ray Wilson lost control of his company then and became a vice-president for the remainder of his time at Frontier. Emil handled the sale of the company to Bud Maytag in Apr 1958. Still need a photo and obituary for Emil. -Jake Lamkins (3/12/16)
