Where am I?

Congratulations to Jonathan Robertson, one of 12 enthusiastic readers who correctly identified last week’s “Where am I?” as the iconic Mr. Milk Bottle sign at the now closed Alta Dena Dairy at 1533 Indian Hill Blvd., Pomona. This photo elicited more reminiscence from readers than any other over the two years since we began “Where am I?” including from our winner, Jonathan: “I can vividly remember sitting in the front seat of our Ford Galaxy at the age of about 6 or 7, and of course no seat belt on back in the late 1960s, and being greeting by the always friendly owner of Mr. Milk Bottle. My mom would buy bread, eggs, milk … and I would get my favorite, the good old Long John Popsicle! Truly part of the good old days.” We also learned through your responses that the Pomona City Council is considering designating the Mr. Milk Bottle sign a historic landmark, so standby for that story! Jonathan is now entered into the year-end drawing for a one-year subscription to everyone’s favorite award-winning local newspaper, the Claremont Courier. So, “Where am I” this week? Email your answer, full name, and city of residence — and suggestions for future mystery photos — to contest@claremont-courier.com for your chance to win. Photo/Nancy Treser Osgood
