Highland Park History….

 


Check out this newspaper ad.  It promises all flavors of ice cream, with notice, delivered as well as sundry other goods. This was an ad found in the 17 March 1906 edition of the Highland Park News-Herald & Journal. Also note that Figueroa Street used to be called Pasadena so 5711 Pasadena puts the store right around where Antigua Bread & Las Cazuelas are now.

If you’re looking for old editions of local newspapers, including our own Highland Park News-Herald & Journal, you should check out the California Digital Newspaper Collection housed at the University of California at Riverside and available online at https://cdnc.ucr.edu/
