JOHN H. TEMPLE, CA. 1920Entry/Object ID
80.19.53.1Description
Color: Black; white
An engraving of John H. Temple, done by E. G. Williams & Bro. for the American Historical Society, ca. 1920. The image is 6 1/2"H x 4 3/4"W in a box border on a large piece of paper and Temple is portrayed in an upper torso shot wearing a dark suit and vest; white shirt; bow tie; and lapel pin. This image is reproduced in John Steven McGroarty's "From the Mountains to the Sea" history of southern California, published in 1921. Since John H. Temple, son of F. P. F. Temple, provided much information to McGroarty for biographical sketches of himself and other family members, it is assumed this copy belonged to him. There is a 2" tear on the lower portion of the right edge; a 3/4" tear on the upper portion of the same edge; dented corners; light surface soiling; and a few creases, so the object is in fair condition.Lexicon
