Thanks to Patch users and for giving us
However, we are still in need of
Can you help us?
The San Mateo County Historical Association still has many photos that need captions, after it recently purchased more than 30,000 San Mateo Times newspaper photos that span most of the 20th century and provide a glimpse into San Mateo County life and its generations.
Mitch Postel, president of the historical association, bought the photos from a collector for $2,500.
Own a little piece of history by looking at these photos and help the association find out about the story behind each one, so the group can archive them.
Peninsula Patch sites will publish various photos as we get them - usually on Thursday mornings - so you can help us identify them.
The back of this week's first photo reads: Barry Goldwater and Jack Bell, November 20, 1963. Does anyone know who Jack Bell was?
The back of the other photo reads: M.J. Mosunich, Jim Parmlee, Mrs. Dorothy Thein & son Roland; April 30, 1953; photo for 20-30 Club. Does anyone know what the 20-30 club was?
Please note in the comments if you have information about the photos attached.
Then call or e-mail archivist, Carol Peterson, if you want more information. Carol can be reached by phone, (650) 299-0104, or email, carol@historysmc.org.
