Each month, we take a look at a past issue, reliving some of the news, sports, advertisements and more from years gone by.

For November, we feature items taken from the Nov. 10, 2010 issue of The Oakdale Leader, 10 years ago and stretch back a little farther in the City of Action, with items from the Nov. 9, 2005 issue of The Riverbank News, 15 years ago.

Readers are reminded that these snippets are served up as a source of entertainment only.
