YES, I AM PROUD OF THIS GRAPHIC. NOT ONLY DOES IT GIVE WONDERFUL HISTORIC INFORMATION ON ONE OF MY MOST REQUESTED SUBJECTS (TOLL GATES), IT IS ALSO AN EXAMPLE OF THE PRISTINE DIGITIZATION PROJECT I HAVE UNDERTAKEN TO PRESERVE THESE INCREDIBLE PIECES OF TRENTON HISTORY. JOHN CLEARY AND HARRY PODMORE WERE THE WRITERS OF THESE COLUMNS BACK IN THE 30'S AND 40'S. MOST OF THE SURVIVING COPIES ARE IN SCRAPBOOKS WHICH HAVE DEVELOPED RIPPLED PAGES, AND ALSO ON SCRATCHY MICROFILM. ALONG WITH DIGITIZING THE IMAGES, I AM ALSO UNDERTAKING AN INDEXING DATABASE WHICH WILL LEAD RESEARCHERS TO A SPECIFIC "TRENTON IN BYGONE DAYS" COLUMN. MANY OF THESE COLUMNS NEED INDEXING DUE TO THE FACT THAT ONE COLUMN MAY COVER MULTIPLE SUBJECTS.
