Talent Brick School Served the Community for Decades
This Talent School photo/postcard was just purchased by the blogger from ebay. It appears the school was new as the landscaping around it is minimal and it is draped in flags and colorful cloth to show it off. This postcard was not mailed but had a message on the back as follows: "Talent Schoolhouse where Lucile & Wayne go to school - Sadie," I am looking for the last name of the writer.
Another important part of the postcard is the "Photo by C.W. Holdridge, Talent, Ore" stamped on the back. Does anyone out there have the school bell, the finial from the top or of course some of the bricks?
Other photos of the school that stood where the Elementary School is now (corner of Wagner St and Main St. in Talent, OR):
The school was torn down to make way for a new school building in the 1970s.
