A black and white photograph of Walter Jr. and Nellie Didier, La Casa Nueva courtyard, Homestead, Puente, ca. 1920s.

Nellie has a short marvel wave bob and wears a dress with a cape collar and a necklace with a tear dropped shape pendant around her neck. Behind the couple is one of the mill stones that make up the center decor of the fountain as well as the large palms and other shrubbery. Portions of La Casa Nueva's roof and the East Wing open aired patio are visible. The photo is in good condition with only minor warping, a photographer's stamp of "22."
