CALIFORNIA HUNTINGTON LIBRARY - SANTA ANA COLLEGE 1927-1929 PHOTO ALBUM

Item #374

1927-1929 photo album with about 150 photos measuring between 1.75” x 2.75” to about 3.5” x 4.75.” The beginning of the album shows “Exemplars of 1927,” which appear to show professors in classrooms. Later on, there are photos from the First Annual Fiesta at Santa Ana Junior College, which I believe are from the same school. There are many names in the album, including Maurice Rayburn at a desk, the Rayburn Family in Little Rock, Arkansas, Thomas Hall Glenn, Neal Harlow, Ed Danielson, etc, but the album seems to follow an unidentified couple from their dating life to their honeymoon in Arizona. There are about 25 photos from the Huntington Estate, including the Japanese Garden, the library and art gallery from 1929. Several photos are numbered in white ink either on the page or directly on the photo, though there is no indication as to why. The album measures 7” x 11.25.” The pages with the photos are all detached and several pages in the back are unused. About a handful of photos are missing. A wonderful look at a visit to the Huntington estate in its first years open to the public.
