One of the reasons why I love writing historical-themed cover stories is that it gives me the excuse to look through years of microfilm of the county's old newspapers–not just the Orange County Register and Los Angeles Times, but the county's many long-gone dailies. Not only are they time capsules, but they are chockablock with bloggable treasures that still resonate to a modern-day audience–like the reprehensible caricature of a Mexican in an 1924 Fullerton Daily Tribune op-ed cartoon–which, of course, is after the jump.
