We’re still psyched about our newly-digitized archives. Here’s a few of the funnier items we’ve found while researching our past.

“A strange yellow substance”

31 March 1976

More after the jump!

“Lost a little of her shine”

7 Nov. 1984

“Use the privilege in the spirit in which it would be given”

18 Nov. 1959

“All entrants are given 3.3 grams of tobacco…”

4 May 1954

“Outlawed for dogs”

9 Feb. 1979

There are thousands more where these came from.  What can you find?
