Description
Photograph of a poppy field near Echo Mountain in Altadena, [s.d.]. Four people, including one man and three women, are visible. The women are picking flowers at right while the man looks on from left. The field in which they are gathered is a large, flat area, and a tall mountain range is visible in the distance. Several large, dark bushes can be seen near the foot of the mountain range. Compares to CHS-2181, before Forsyth home was built. Compares to CHS-14392, which shows a woman picking poppies.
