Description
A snapshot of a wrecked Chevrolet automobile near Bassett, California, 12 October 1924. The view shows the car lying off the side of the road, likely Valley Boulevard (also known as Pomona Boulevard) in the unincorporated community east of El Monte and west of La Puente. Part of another car is on the road behind the damaged vehicle. A pencil inscription on the reverse reads, "Near Basset [sic], Oct 12, 1924 / Collision with other Chevrolet under same date." With warping, discoloraion, and a creased corner, the condition is good.
