A class photo album made for a Booker T. Washington High School reunion in Tulsa, Oklahoma, held July 20 - 23, 1978, for classes 1916 through the 1920s. The album consists of twenty-eight (28) photocopied pages of black ink printed on white paper and is bound with a light brown paper cover and green cloth binding tape. The cover features handlettered text, [Down Through The / 1920s], above typewritten text [An Album of Memories of Classes from 1916 through the Roaring 1920s] and a photo of children at a hand-pumped drinking fountain. Inside are numerous photos of students and campus life accompanied by typewritten captions and lists of students. Throughout are handwritten inscriptions consisting of signatures, sometimes accompanied by contact information, presumably for other attendees at the reunion.
