191075671Ontario: N.p. 1910-1920. Original oblong 8 x 6 inches brown leather album bearing 188 original photographs. Most are snap shot size but some are large. Some fading to a few but overall a nice album with no dropped pictures and in good condition.Seems to be an album of a tight-knit group of friends in eastern Los Angeles primarily Ontario. There are 10 small head shots on the second page with Blanche Bradburn being the wildest and on the page following it shows what appears to be the same women with a title of "Mrs. Warmer's Sunday School Classes." They all appear too old to be taking Sunday School classes so likely they were teachers. Early photograph albums concerning Los Angeles are not so scarce but albums where the main people live in Ontario right at the foot of Mt. Baldy are few and far between. This is born out by the photos on the next two pages which concern a horse and buggy outing to Cucamonga Canyon in 1910. Here we can see that the teachers are talking them on a field trip. They are next off to Urbita Springs near San Bernardino which offered a lake and swimming area along with amusement rides in the location that is now Inland Center Mall. Nest trip; Redondo Beach and Pier but this time the youngsters are left behind. After a brief trip back to Cucamonga Canyon the go by car to Stoddard's Canyon in Idaho where they spend a great deal of time hiking and exploring.The group seems to dwindle in size yet their next trip is a gutsy one; up the Owens Valley to Mammoth. It is here that the captions stop and the album turns into a sort of remembrance of friends and the children they birth through the years. There is one fun photograph of one of the women playing golf. Finally at the end we see a group shot of them all again looking considerably older and wiser but still smiling. N.p. hardcover
