Abstract: West High School was the second public high school to be located in Cleveland, Ohio. It originated as a branch of Central High School in the 3rd floor of a grammar school on West 45th Street in 1852. It moved to locations on Clinton Avenue and Bridge Avenue before settling permanently in 1902 in a new building at Franklin and West 69th, where it became a 6-year combined junior and senior high. After its amalgamation in the new Lincoln-West High in 1970, West High's building was razed after serving for a short time as West Jr. High and replaced by the Joseph Gallagher Intermediate School. The collection consists of awards given to the newspaper and a Popeye Cartoon.
