Time Travel: A City United Methodist Church Choir in 1975 and Taking a 1938 Visit to the Ritz in Clarksburg
By Dick Duez on March 31, 2024 from History Blog
Here's a picture from 1975 of the Bridgeport Methodist Church Choir and outside of Jim Frush, the identities of most of those pictures remains unknown. As always, please add the names of anyone you can identify in the comment section below.
For those looking for a bit of serious nostalgia, this photo of The Ritz in downtown Clarksburg from 1938 should do the trick. Although not clear at this resolution, the movie showing is the 1938 film "Topper Takes a Trip." The movie was a sequel of Topper from the prior year. The movie starred Constance Bennett, Roland Young, Billie Burke and Alan Mowbray.
Editor's Note: This ongoing photo feature of pictures from Bridgeport and throughout the Mountain State is part of local historian Richard "Dick" Duez's collection, the unofficial historian of Bridgeport, would appreciate any scanned photos emailed to him for use here or to include in his ongoing efforts to preserve local history. You can email photos, or let him know how to acquire copies of photos you may have in your possession, to Duez at dickdo@citynet.net.
