A snapshot photograph, "The Biltmore Hotel Los Angeles," ca. 1920s. The image taken from Pershing Square across the street shows much of the center and portions of the south and north towers of the hostelry, including some of the decorative details just above the entrance. The caption is from an ink inscription at the bottom of the reverse. With some soiling and very small stains, mainly on the reverse, as well as edge rubbing, the overall condition is good.
