Photograph of the home of Henry Claussen on Beachwood Drive in Hollywood, California, ca.1905. A small cottage stands along the treeline of an orchard in the foreground, with a windmill a little farther off to the left among crop rows. Further still along a narrow, unpaved road, stands a two-story house and what is partially visible of an even larger house to the extreme left. In the valley below, crop rows and orchards are visible running up against the foot of the mountains in the background. Picture File Card reads "In the early days, Henry Claussen--a penniless, crippled German--took up a section of government land in Beachwood Canyon. For want of a horse, he carried his butchered ureal on his back to the market in the Pueblo Los Angeles."
