A town built on Quaker farms, Collingswood, NJ was named to honor the Collings family and their vast woodlands. It’s famous for becoming a "dry town" in 1873, and its beautiful park was donated by a descendant who became a sugar baron! #CollingswoodNJ #NewJerseyHistory #NJHistory #DryTown #Ameri

Newark NJ Terminal Interior Window View postcard
.
#Newark #NewarkNJ #NewJerseyHistory #AirportArchitecture #Travel #Aviation #History #Avgeek
This postcard captures a dramatic interior view of an airport terminal observation corridor, likely dating from the late 1950s through the 1970s. A long wall of floor-to-ceiling windows overlooks the aircraft ramp, allowing travelers and visitors to watch airliners parked outside on the apron. The terminal interior features sleek mid-century modern design elements including dark ceiling panels, clean geometric lines, polished flooring, and minimalist railings. Sunlight streaming through the expansive glass wall creates strong shadows across the corridor, emphasizing the architectural style popular in jet-age airport terminals. Outside the windows, several commercial aircraft are visible on the ramp, reinforcing the excitement and glamour associated with air travel during the period. The image reflects a time when airport terminals were designed not only for transportation efficiency but also as public spaces where people gathered to observe aviation activity.

....the 40th anniversary of my first published article ever, done for the 4,000-circulation weekly. It was about a huge anti-apartheid march in Newark, N.J. I was folded into The New Jersey Afro-American by Deborah P. Smith-Gregory, the article's key and lead author. Deborah worked for local Afro legends Harry B. Webber and editor-in-chief Bob Queen. She would succeed him in 1987, becoming the paper's first woman editor.
