Description:
Black and white photograph showing members of Summer Reading Club of the South Branch of the Bridgeport Public Library in 1959. The South Branch opened in 1922 on Myrtle Avenue between South and Railroad Avenues on land donated by Marie and Virginia Soules: two sisters who lived on Warren Street adjacent to the land. It temporarily closed during the 1930s and, in 1965, it was permanently closed because of the State Highway expansion of Route 25.
