Description
An aerial view of part of downtown Los Angeles, ca. 1929. The aerial view includes City Hall at the upper left, but it appears that the image was printed in reverse, given that the streets to the right and the various commercial structures around them, as well as Pershing Square and the Biltmore Hotel, would not be situated in that way. There is black album paper residue on the reverse indicating that the print is old, but it is not certain what its age is. With browning or discoloration on the edges and some soiling, the overall condition is good.
