EL CAMPO SANTO CEMETERY WEST ELEVATIONEntry/Object ID

Color: Black; White
A negative of the west elevation of El Campo Santo Cemetery, ca. 1921. The view is from the south end of the driveway that circled in front of the cemetery and around the heart-shaped planter, which seems to be in the early stages of construction at the lower left. Most of the original brick wall is in view and, left of center is the closed cast-iron entrance gate. Behind the wall, right of center, is much of the Walter P. Temple Memorial Mausoleum, which appears to be completed, hence the estimated date. A few palm trees are visible behind the mausoleum. In the distance at left is Puente Hill (P-Hill), now the Industry Hills area. Aside from darkened top and bottom edges, which don't affect the image, there are no visible signs of wear or damage and the condition is good.
