Very nice vintage 1927 yearbook titled "Shadow" for Quincy High School located in Quincy, IL. Yearbook is broken down into several sections: * The School - photos and information of the faculty, senior class and underclass students * Athletics - appears that only three sports were offered back then, football, basketball and track. Photos and information along with team scores * Activities - listing of each club * Features - highlights of each school month and, society features. * Advertising - this section consists of 20 pages of local advertising which included some of these businesses: The Burmac Company, Electric Wheel, Olympia Candy Company, Broadway State Savings Bank, Carley's Drug Store, Quincy College, and many more. An added bonus included with the yearbook is a four page commencement program for the 1927 QHS graduation ceremony which was held on June 16, 1927 at the Empire Theater. This yearbook provides a wealth of information that can be used for genealogy research. But just as importantly, the book is also a great resource of history in 1926. The yearbooks is in very good to excellent condition considerting its age. The covers and internal pages are tight. Front & back covers shows some surface wear and scuffing. Some writing throughout the book especially at back of book were there are autographs of fellow friends and students. Shipped via USPS media mail. (Inv:qcy1002)
