Measures 10 ½’’x 14’’ Outside covers are worn on the edges and the binding is torn. Yet it still holds together well and the papers on the inside are in good condition. It was bound and printed at 211 North Virginia Street by the Nevada Newsletter Publishing Company. It features articles of the social happenings of Reno, large beautiful black and white photos of Washoe County and many advertisements of local businesses. There is even an article written by then governor James G. Scrugham, he writes that Nevada’s true wealth has yet to be uncovered. University of Nevada’s President writes with pride in one article on the growing enrollment number, which grew from 241 in 1918 to 749 in 1923. This is a lovely look back into Reno’s past and gives one an idea of Reno’s growth since 1924.
