Item description from seller

9.5" x 12.5" photo album with about 170 snapshots from the mid to late 1930s, which was kept by a teenage girl named Nell Rice. She went to Woodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach, California, where I believe she graduated in 1939. There are photos from her first dance, rushing in freshman year of an unidentified college, snaps of Shirley Temple, Dick Patton, and Richard Dix. Places include Catalina, San Pedro, Los Angeles, Big Bear, Yosemite, Pasadena, San Francisco, Portland, and several from Alaska, which is where I believe her mother's family is from. The album is well annotated with some great snapshots and a fun story of a young woman growing up. a few photos are missing and the string ties are loose.
