Hillside New Jersey: The Hillside Times 1934. 1934. A fresh bright copy. Clean square tight and unmarked. No owner's name or bookplate. Illustrated throughout with photos and prints. From the author's Foreword: "In writing the history of the territory now known as Hillside Township and vicinity it has been necessary in the beginning to go into the history of the early settlements of both Elizabethtown and Newark so that the reader may have a proper perspective on the subject. It has also been necessary later in the text to go into the history of territory now included in Union Township Newark and Elizabeth as the territory treated upon was considered a part of the community now known as Hillside Township in the early days. I have in the short space allotted me made an effort to blend with the story the background which helped to bring about certain conditions and events the economical reasons and the trend of thought existent at the time." Sponsored by Hurden-Looker Post No. 50 American Legion of Hillside. At the end are many unnumbered pages of local business advertising. Laid-in is a "Souvenir Program" for the "40th Anniversary of the Incorporation of the Township of Hillside 1913-1953" conducted at the Abram P. Morris School Auditorium Coe Avenue May 26 1953.
