1923: Fairview Park Carnival

Trenton Evening Times, Saturday June 30, 1923

          Those were nice prizes given away in 1923.  DeCou's Lane may have been what eventually became Hobson Avenue. 

Corona Firefighters

This isn't related to BSP, but as an old BSP firefighter, I enjoy pictures of late 19th and early 20th century firefighters and their apparatus.  This picture was obtained on a recent visit to Corona, California.  This early Corona hose house was built in 1898.  The volunteer force was led by Chief Perle Glass sitting next to the driver in a bowler hat.  The historical marker pictured below is situated near the site of the hose house.
