Memorabilia of a Paterson Eastside High School Student | Jewish Historical Society

For most of us, it’s nice to reminisce about our high school years. Some people hold on to those memories by keeping small pieces of memorabilia. Below are some saved 1960s treasures contributed by one of our hardworking JHSNJ volunteers. If you are from that era, we hope it brings back some fond memories.
