What an historic treasure! Here's the original "DAILY TRUE AMERICAN"
engraving of the new Trenton High School which was to replace the old
Mercer Street Trenton High School. As you can see by my re-formatted
graphic, the old newspaper page has been resurrected, brightened up,
color added and is now a qualifying digital piece of Trenton area
history! This building was on the corner of Hamilton and Chestnut
Avenue, and as can be seen in the True American engraving, was an
architectural gem. Can you even begin to imagine walking the halls in
that splendidly beautiful building? Can you imagine how great it would
have been to save that splendid beautiful building? Dream on! The
original page is shown below and you will agree that it was impossible to fit
this within the boundaries of the computer screen. It is also my goal to make these historic graphics as appealing to the eye as possible. Here is the article and graphic before formatting:
