Description

Photograph of an aerial view of flooding of the Black (Dark?) Canyon Bridge near Warner Brothers Studio, ca.1930. The river runs from left to right beneath the wide bridge at center. A road from the dark hills and trees in the background crosses over the bridge, which has been separated from the bank in the foreground by the excess water. The river washes up into the buildings and parking lots in the foreground as it pumps through the wide streets.
