Description:


Album of black and white photographs. 18.5x25.5 cm (7¼x10"), black leather covers.



Photo album tracing the construction of the rail lines for A.E.E.R.R. in Arizona, the Pacific Electric San Fernando Valley Line, followed by a family photo album including news clippings and a few pieces of ephemera. Engraved nameplate "Miss Leonor Bond" (1913-1982) tipped in at front and rear of album, of whom most of the family photos appear to feature; it appears her parents may have been the compiler. A charming look into both early 20th c. family life in the southwest, as well as the lighter side of life as a construction worker on early railroad projects in the region.
