1922: THE NEW TRENTON POLICE STATION

FEW CAN DISAGREE THAT OUR LOCAL NEWSPAPERS ARE A GOLD MINE OF LONG FORGOTTEN HISTORICAL EVENTS. THROUGH THE YEARS, THE TRENTON TIMES FAMILY OF NEWSPAPERS HAVE DILIGENTLY RECORDED HISTORY FOR THE BENEFIT OF FUTURE GENERATIONS. THESE NEWSPAPERS, WHICH INLUDE THE TRENTON TIMES, TRENTON EVENING TIMES, DAILY STATE GAZETTE, AND DAILY TRUE AMERICAN ARE WELLSPRINGS OF DELIGHTFUL AND LARGELY FORGOTTEN HISTORIC CHRONICLES OF PERSONS, PLACES, AND THINGS OF THE PAST. THE ABOVE GRAPHIC, AND HUNDREDS OF OTHERS WHICH ARE FOUND AND STILL TO BE FOUND, REPRESENT JUST ONE OF THE TREASURES BURIED DEEP WITHIN THOSE GREAT OLD NEWSPAPERS.
AS TO THE ABOVE GRAPHIC, THERE ARE UNDOUBTEDLY AT LEAST A FEW VISITORS*** TO THIS SITE WHO RECALL THE POLICE STATION IN THE POST ABOVE.
***UNFORTUNATELY, VERY FEW SENIOR CITIZENS ARE INTERESTED
OR CAPABLE OF LEARNING COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY. EQUALLY UNFORTUNATE IS THE FACT THAT THEY ARE THE FOLKS WHO WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE THESE MEMORIES OF THE AREA'S ILLUSTRIOUS PAST. IF YOU ARE A MEMBER OF THE YOUNGER GENERATION AND A FREQUENT VISITOR TO THIS SITE, WHY NOT SAVE ITEMS WHICH YOU KNOW WOULD BE OF INTEREST TO YOUR GRANDPARENTS, AND PRINT THEM OUT? TRUST ME: THEY WILL BE VERY INTERESTED! IT'S MERELY A RIGHT CLICK ON A SPECIFIC GRAPHIC AND ANOTHER CLICK ON THE "SAVE IMAGE AS" SCREEN.

THE OFFSET PRINTING AND REPRODUCTION OF MOST OF THE NEWSPAPER PHOTOS FROM THE 1920'S AND EARLIER WERE OFTEN WASHED OUT AND VERY LACKING IN DETAIL. COMPUTER ENHANCEMENT CAN ONLY GO SO FAR.)
