Description
"Highways and Byways Through the San Gabriel Valley," edited by Warren S. Porter, published by O. S. Billings Printing Company, 1905. The booster publication primarily concerns the promotion of Alhambra, the industrial community of Dolgeville (later annexed to Alhambra), and, to a small degree, San Gabriel. Descriptions of housing, schools and industry are accompanied by many advertisements from local businesses and there are some photo illustrations. With significant stains, soiling and tears to the wrappers, but most pages clean, the condition is generally fair.
