Color: Black; White
A newspaper clipping of an obituary from the Pasadena Star-News concerning the death of Walter P. Temple, 15 November 1938. The artifact from page three of the local news section, covers much of several columns, and was titled "Tribute Paid Southland / Pioneer's Life and Deeds," and subtitled "W. P. Temple's Efforts to Develop Los Angeles / Area, Through Riches and Poverty, Told." A byline credits Perry Worden, Temple family historian, as the author of the piece, which covers many of the major aspects of Temple's life, including childhood, his siblings, early education, marriage and children, the discovery of oil on family property, and Mr. Temple's work as a capitalist. With page browning, several areas of losses, creases, tears, scissor cuts at the center, several horizontal and vertical folds, and folds, the object is in fair condition.Lexicon
