Celebrating The Grand Paternal
What we're looking at here is a copy of a page from an Altadena Chamber Of Commerce-sponsored soft backed book called "Altadena Welcomes You", printed around 1935 by the Altadena Press. This particular page details Webster's Pharmacy, but more importantly, gives a picture of the founder, Harold Frank Webster.

While attending USC for his doctorate, Frank took a job at a pharmacy on Lake and Mariposa, and bought it from the original owner in 1926.
