Description
A letter addressed to someone visiting Los Angeles, 28 January 1871, written in Belleville, Minnesota. The letter is a folio with text on all pages. The letter talks about someone arriving in Los Angeles "among the Mexicans," pointing out stereotypes of "dark eyed Senoritas," and greasy Senors, how Los Angeles was a fashionable resort and a hotel (most likely the Pico Hotel), more about the ideal scenery and climate of Los Angeles, how being seasick was good for your health. The letter is in good condition overall.
