When the Council office moved to 11350 Palms Blvd. in West Los Angeles, new stationary was designed similar to that used
in 1960. As in 1960, the masthead featured the Council officers and a map of the council in the middle of the page. When Council officers and directors changed in succeeding years, new versions of the stationary were printed. This design was used through
1972 when Crescent Bay merged with San Fernando Valley Council to form Great Western Council.
