Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Tujunga Valley Theater, showing hills in the background, [s.d.]. The Tujunga Valley Theater sits at center, its stucco front accented by a chain-supported awning that bears its name. The theater also has a decorated pediment, with an American flag protruding from its apex. A billboard to the left of the theater bears several posters advertising films, including Sherlock Holmes, while a smaller board in the entryway showcases photographs, presumably film stills. Hills are visible in the background.
