Description
A real photo postcard, "The Patio / Casa Adobe, Southwest Museum / Highland Park, Los Angeles," ca. 1920s. The image is taken from the portico of one of the wings of the U-shaped replica adobe house, intended to represent a "typical" residence of pre-American California. A couple of benches are in the portico at the right. The courtyard has a stone fountain and plants of many types. The unused card has minimal soiling and rubbing, and very slight curvature, and is in good condition.
