Description

EL CAMPO SANTO AND HEART-SHAPED PLANTER RECONSTRUCTION Color: Black; White A black and white photograph of El Campo Santo and heart-shaped planter reconstruction, 3 February 1977. Seen from the northwest, the planter appears in the center marked by a curb. Five surveying markers are located within the planter at different locations. Across the center is an "x" shape formed by two narrow metal pipes; on the top middle portion is a knoll and palm tree. In the left background is the brick wall entrance to the cemetery, which is blocked by a dumpster, having a sign on the right reading, "KEEP OUT/ PRIVATE/ PROPERTY." Two men are seen walking in front of the wall to the right. Hedges and trees are behind the wall, and the south side of the mausoleum which includes the sloping cornice and two columns. On the far right is the construction of the east parking lot with graded dirt and several newly-planted trees. In the distance are commercial buildings, a portion the Hacienda Boulevard bridge over San Jose Creek, and hills. On the back bottom right corner is a label crediting Duane C. Alan with the photography and providing his business information. Two identical images are included and are in good condition. Number-Units: 1
