This weeks picture is about this here Plague

This here Brass Plaque use to be located at Roosevelt Elementary School. During the 1930's and early 1940's, President Roosevelt started the "Work Projects Administration" to get Americans back to work during the depression. And building the brick wall around the school was part of that work project. And most likely the bricks came from The Pomona Brick Co. that use to be on 9th St. here in Pomona.

Now since this picture was taken, the brick has been torn down, because of all the new upgrades that the school is going through right now.

About two weeks ago, I went by there and the brick wall was gone, and so was the plague.

So I was talking to someone about the plaque, he told me that he was pretty sure someone from the school dist. came by and got it. Now that's good news.
