A Tribute To Johnstown
50th Anniversary Edition Book
Celebrating 50 Years of Our Book, 150 Years of Colorado, 250 Years of America
Originally published in 1976 for America’s Bicentennial, this little book made its way into the hearts of Johnstown’s approximate 1,300 residents. They sold fast, and when they were gone, there were no reprints. The book is a compilation of local history, statistics, people and families, the schools, churches, businesses, industry, community clubs, and more.
The JHS is bringing it back in a commemorative 50th anniversary edition this year. The new edition will preserve the original content, as well as add new content including new historical research, photographs and stories. It will also reflect on the past five decades of change and growth in Johnstown while highlighting connections between Johnstown’s history and the broader American and Colorado stories.
