Description

"The Upper San Gabriel Valley in the War," published by the Covina Argus Publishing Company, ca. 1919. The item contains material covering the contributions of and honoring the soldiers who came from towns such as Covina, Baldwin Park, Puente, and others. Lists of soldiers by town, narratives about these communities' war efforts organized by town, and financial information about liberty loans and other wartime drives, are included. There are also some photographs of key persons involved in volunteer efforts. Other material deals with Boy Scouts and Red Cross work and memorials to soldiers who died in action. With much soiling, edge rubbing, small tears, creases and foxing on wrappers and pest damage, soiling and creasing on pages, the overall condition is fair.
