Fountain Valley, Sam Armor, etc.

It's "back to school" time! (Pause for collective groan of anguish.) Today's photos show the old Fountain Valley School, which stood at the northwest corner of Talbert Ave and Bushard. The interior shot shows the home economics class in Jan. 1951.

Carolyn Schoff just pointed out to me that High Seas Trading Co. sells a Hawaiian-style shirt featuring the California Missions. They're also talking about doing a Orange County history shirt at some point in the future. I'll let you know if that happens.

The always-amazing Internet Archive has now posted Samuel Armor's History of Orange County, California (the 1921 edition). Text versions and full photographic reproductions can be viewed online for free!

Sadly, I had to shut down comments (my favorite part of the blog) thanks to endless spam. Most of my posts are linked from my FB page, so feel free to comment there or to email me. If I can find a more secure way to do so, I will bring back normal commenting later.
