Starting in the mid 1980s, the Langley Advance ran a feature series called "Looking At Langley" which often featured photos from early editions of the newspaper, or even photos in their files that hadn't been published. I was happy to find a re-run of this aerial photo showing Aldergrove High School under construction as the original article from 10 October 1957 was blurry (the fault of whomever was doing the digital scanning at the time not doing a quality check).

I also discovered that a hard copy of the photo of Trevor Beggs had been put in the Fire Hall files a number of years ago with a note saying he was inspecting the building of the new fire hall. This was obviously not correct, and the photo has been moved to the proper file with the right information. =)
