Description
One of a set of twenty-eight (28) photographs depicting the Los Angeles area, ca. 1920s. There is a stamp on the verso by the firm of Perrin-Parker of Sawtelle. Photo is numbered by firm as No. 63 and depicts a view of the main building at Los Angeles City College, 1929. A two-story structure with a central dome over a rotunda, an arched entrance, and ivy-covered walls. Opened in 1914 when the state Normal School moved from downtown Los Angeles, the site became the first campus of U.C.L.A. before becoming, in September 1929, Los Angeles City College. General condition is good with moderate curling of the paper.
