Description

Photograph of a birdseye view of the Cahuenga Freeway in Hollywood, June 1941. The freeway runs from the foreground at left to the background at right and goes uphill as it moves into the distance. Many early-model cars and trucks can be seen on the wide highway. Tree-covered hills can be seen on both sides of the road, and a concrete overpass bridge can be seen near the top of the hill in the background.
