Memorial of the dedication of the Buena Vista Bridge. Los Angeles, CA., 16 October 1911.
A 16 page program on the dedication of the Buena Vista Bridge. The front cover has two black and white photos of the bridge, both set in a boarder. The top photo is a wide shot with "Memorial of the Dedication of the Buena Vista Bridge" in red lettering. Below this is a close up photo of the bridge with "By President Taft and Others, Oct. 16, 1911. Outline of Speeches and History of the Bridge. Other Big Things Needed for the District Between Los Angeles Court House and Pasadena" in red lettering. These two photos are then set inside of a boarder made up of diamonds. This program includes an outline of speeches by President Taft, W.H.Stewart and Reverend F.W. Carstens. It also includes information on who the bridge was built as well as plans and hopes for the future of the bridge and surrounding area. With yellowing of pages, minor tears, heavy abrasion damage, a detached front cover and a detached center page, this object is in poor condition.
