Jonidis left Connecticut on Sept. 6,1933 and arrived in Los Angeles June 30,1934.
He was 80 days late on account of the times he spent in hospitals along the way.

It looks like something is written on the face of the rock. I wonder if it's still around stuck on a shelf somewhere.

Mayor Shaw,
I like the irony of your user name
, but suspect that your alter ego died before I was born.
By all accounts the real Mayor Shaw was from the Dark Side. Have there been any previous posts on this thread about him?
He should have been brought to book for his criminal taste in footwear (what the heck is he wearing)? LOL.
