About this photograph
Historical photograph of Gwendolyn Tyree at Strathmore High School's Rube Day celebration in 1926.
The record identifies the subject as Gwendolyn Tyree but does not provide further information about her. Rube Day was a themed event at Strathmore High School, though the record does not explain its nature or purpose.
The photograph is held by the Internet Archive as part of material from Tulare County Library's local history collection. Tulare County sits in California's San Joaquin Valley, a farming region that saw heavy settlement in the later nineteenth century and became dependent on irrigated agriculture. The county library maintains a large photographic collection documenting ordinary residents, families, schools and businesses rather than public figures.
The image was digitised through California Revealed, a statewide programme that makes material from California libraries, archives, museums and historical societies publicly available. Photographs reaching the archive through this programme come from many separate local institutions across the state.
The photographer is not identified in the record.
Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
