My father's old high school - Baltimore Polytechnic Institute - Baltimore, MD

I have a number of cards that are tied to my family in some way. This is the high school, "Poly", where my father graduated from in 1944, prior to going off to the war in Europe.
The Baltimore Polytechnic Institute was founded in 1883. This is a depiction of the relocated school, (1913), at Calvert Street and North Avenue. For more information about Poly's history...
