The Sylva Herald has been publishing its popular “Then and Now” feature for more than a year, and the newspaper is running out of file photos that can be replicated. For that reason, The Herald alters the format most weeks to publish interesting photos like the one above taken at Sylva Elementary School. Submitted by Lloyd Cowan, the photo is believed to be from 1962 or 1963 and is thought to be one of Arline Evans’ fourth-grade classes. Anyone with additional information about the picture is asked to call Lynn Hotaling at 586-2611, ext. 206, or send an e-mail to lynn@thesylvaherald.com. Information obtained will be added with the photo to The Herald’s online archives and included in “Things & Stuff.” The Herald will continue a “Then and Now” at least once a month. Readers who have photos taken in Jackson County that are at least 25 years old and include a recognizable feature (such as an existing building, highway, mountaintop or ridgeline) are invited to submit them for use in “Then and Now.” Photos can be dropped off or mailed to the newspaper office. As a convenience to those who would prefer not to let their cherished photos out of their sight, Herald photographer Nick Breedlove will scan photos Tuesday and Wedesday mornings between 10 and 11 a.m. Those with questions about potential “Then and Now” photos may contact Breedlove at 586-2611, ext. 310, or nick@thesylvaherald.com. |
