“View of lions laying on elevated logs at Gay's Lion Farm in El Monte, Los Angeles County“ c. 1925. Photo from our online catalog.
Gay’s Lion Farm was open between 1925 and 1942, when it had to close due to wartime meat shortages. It was described as the "Disneyland of the 1920s and 1930s." In 1925, El Monte High School adopted the Lions name for its teams, and the Gays provided a lion mascot for big games.

I want this!
East of East: The Making of Greater El Monte is an edited collection of thirty-one essays that trace the experience of a California community over three centuries, from eighteenth-century Spanish colonization to twenty-first century globalization. Employing traditional historical scholarship, oral history, creative nonfiction and original art, the book provides a radical new history of El Monte and South El Monte, showing how interdisciplinary and community-engaged scholarship can break new ground in public history.

It would be an exaggeration to say that Gay’s Lion Farm was solely responsible for the backyard lion phenomenon of the early 20th Century, but not by much. They bred so many surplus lion cubs that they sold the extras off to anyone with the means to buy one, no questions asked.

New Music: The Word Man - The Book Of The Law, Vol. 2 EP
Tap in with SGV based rap vet The Word Man as he takes us on a lyrical journey via The Book Of Law, Vol. 2.
The 7 track project is full of gems of truth and light backed by hard hitting beats courtesy of Frank John James, Clockwize, Duke Skellington, Roger Molls, and Blast.
The standout track for me is “Word Appreciation,” produced by Crop Circles720 crew member Clockwize.
The album was mixed and mastered by Deeskee of Weightless Audio Productions. Shout out to Milo for the ill cover photo.
Stream above and cop a physical copy while supplies last!
