Description
A draft letter from the Whittier Extension Company to A.S. Huestes in Santa Barbara, California, 6 June 1913. A descriptive folder of North Whittier Heights is being sent to Mr. Huestes, which includes a map of Southern California showing the location of the property and a map showing the subdivided plots. Land has been divided into 5 to 50 acre tracts and costs $500 to $900 an acre, with cheaper land needing leveling before planting. The owners will plant citrus trees for an extra $175 an acre. Easy loan terms are given and improvements to water and roads are mentioned. There are several corrections in pencil and a list of names with addresses. With holes from a straight pin, rust, an unknown substance, discoloration, a fold, wear, and a stain the object is in fair overall condition.
