I bought this photograph album at a St. Charles Illinois flea market about 2002. I mention this only in the hope it might some day find it’s way to a relative of “Judy”. From what I can deduce a teenage girl named Judy traveled by bus to Los Angeles in June of 1956.
Her destination was the home of Uncle Irv and Aunt Flo who lived at 3244 Cattaraugus Street, Los Angeles (Google Street View does come up with a house that looks like the photos.) She chronicles her adventures in this album. The photos measure 3 by 4.5 inches and are margin dated “JUN 56”.
There are 20 black paper sheets in the album, making 40 pages. Most of the even number pages are blank. Her notes below each photo are in white ink.
Here is a walk-through of each page:
