Description
A snapshot of Christmas decorations in downtown Los Angeles, ca. 1920s. The view is from a street corner and shows a wreath with bells attached to garland strung across the streets. Some pedestrians, vehicles, part of a traffic signal and much of a two-story building cater corner to the photographer and which includes a branch of the Security-First National Bank of Los Angeles, are also of note for the photo, which is mounted on album paper, on which there is a heavily faded caption. With light soiling and a missing bottom left corner, the condition is good.
