Title Two men on Olive Hill overlooking the Prospect Park Store and Post Office in Hollywood, California, ca.1905

Description Photograph of two men on Olive Hill overlooking the Prospect Park Store and Post Office in Hollywood, California, ca.1905. Two men in bowler hats and suits stand along the ride in the foreground. The man to the left has his hands in his pockets and is looking at the ground to the right. The man to the right appears to have something that he is adjusting in his hands at chest level, and is faced more directly toward the Prospect Park Store below them. The four long buildings stand to the left in the distance at the bottom of the hill, one of which appears to have a windmill. The store was located on what later became Edgemont on Fountain.
