Description

Photograph of a view of Crescent Drive in Beverly Hills, ca.1910. Trees, some of them sickly, line either side of the wide, unpaved road. An automobile can be seen driving towards the camera in the distance. Large, one- to two-story houses are visible a little back from the road along the right, where a sidewalk is visible. The Burton Green mansion is visible in the far distance at center.
