MATTED AERIAL PHOTOGRAPH OF MISSION SAN GABRIEL
Color: Black; White
A matted black and white aerial photograph of Mission San Gabriel, May 17, 1966. The mission and its various buildings are at the center near the bottom with the parking lot in front and the cemetery at the right. Behind the mission buildings is Mission San Gabriel High School and football field. The Mission Playhouse is above the school. Mission Boulevard is across the bottom and intersects with New Avenue on the far left. On the corner just above this is San Gabriel City Hall. Many other streets and structures, including commercial buildings and homes, are in the distance. Across the background are the San Gabriel Mountains. Written in black ink on the bottom right corner of the back is, "With Sincere Gratitude / Father Bernard O' Connor / May 17, 1966." Below this is a stamp with the name and address of the photography service. At the left of the top is a marking for "Hi Art" illustration boards, with half of another of the same marking on the far right. With creases; dents on the mat; surface soiling; stains; and losening of the image on the bottom right corner, the object is in fair condition.
