Photograph of a horse-drawn carriage crossing a bridge on Franklin Avenue near Bronson Street, Hollywood, California, 1905. A man sits at the helm of a large plank wagon with spoked wheels pulled across a wooden bridge by two horses. A sign is placed next to him in the seat which reads, "London [...]". The riverbed underneath him is dry and overgrown with weeds. In the background to the right, a tower of some kind, with what appears to be a radio tower next to it, stands. Shrubs and trees fill the rest of the background.
