    This is a truly wonderful collection Sylvia; found myself looking at the details of each one and entire histories appeared to open up! The rejection letter is so very telling... Blessings this Sunday. YAM xx

    You have selected some amazing snaps in time here. I'd never heard of a mobile school. I love your first and last photos too - and the beach one.

    Love these historical photos Sylvia! I lived in Bellflower when I was a youngster. Of course where we lived was built a LONG time before 1953.
