No date circa 1888-1891, the only copy located at WorldCat at the University of Virginia gives a date of 1888, and last date found in articles in the paper is 1887. However the article on subscribing to the Leroy (Florida) News notes that it started publishing April 15, and Library of Congress shows that the paper was only published in 1891. Adding to the credibility of an 1891 date, the UVA copy notes a map illustration, and the illustrations in this copy are all of buildings. "The former town of Leroy seems to have a checkered past. Some say it was only a "paper town." Others maintain it was a land fraud deal perpetuated by northerners and marketed across the US and abroad. Historical documents point to a thriving community with a post office, businesses, a school, farms and more. The fact is, Leroy was all…

Redlands, California: Pure Gold, [1955]. Stapled wraps. Very good. [12p.] Small chips to wrap edges. The Mutual Orange Distributors (MOD) was founded in Redlands, California, in 1906 as a cooperative marketing association representing citrus growers in California. Within a few years, the coop included citrus growers in western Arizona. In 1955, MOD changed its name to Pure Gold, originally the brand name for fruit grown by the approximately 2,500 MOD growers. Sunkist took over the Pure Gold trademark when the co-op closed in 1987 due to housing developments replacing the citrus fields and the shrinking number of packing plants. This booklet explains the history of the citrus-growing culture in California and Arizona and provides information on the variety of oranges, lemons, and grapefruit grown and their cultivation and packaging. A map on the back shows the regions represented by the Pure Gold cooperative. Scarce, none located in OCLC. B&w illustrations and halftone photographs. (11"x8-1/2")
