Description
Photograph of Citrus Avenue looking north from Badillo Street, Covina, CA, ca.1908. A long line of rectangular buildings lines the far side of the street, starting in the foreground at left and extending into the distance at right.

All of the buildings have cloth awnings extending out over the sidewalk in front of them. A line of utility poles runs parallel to the buildings, and several horse-drawn vehicles are parked on the side of the street.; Legible signs include, from left to right, "Groceries", "Dry Goods Ladies Furnishings", "The People's Store", "Millinery Wrappers and Skirts", "Men's Furnishings Clothes", "Hats Shoes Trunks", "Call Patterns", "R.
