Description
Photograph of view of San Pedro Street looking north from Washington Street, Los Angeles, ca. June 1896. To the left side of the unpaved street is the curb of a sidewalk, at the corner of which a bicycle leans against a tree. A picket fence and the corner of a house are evident from behind treecover. To the right, telephone poles make their way down the sidewalk at regular intervals. Further in, more picket fences, these showing signs of disrepair, separate the sidewalk from the houses that are partially visible from behind more trees. In the extreme foreground are what appear to be deep tracks that have been furrowed into the road.
