Description
Photograph of an aerial view of South Pasadena, ca.1926. The frame is largely dominated by tree foliage with a few large houses interspersed throughout in the upper portion of the photo, however, the lower half shows smaller homesteads surrounded by small patches of lawn and separated by what appear to be small agricultural fields. According to a USC Digital Library patron, "This photo is in the Milan street location. The bottom street going right to left is Milan with the left end being north. The top street going right to left is Chelten Way. The street intersecting Milan at the bend in Edgwood Drive. Most of the large homes seen in this image are there today (as of 2015)".
