The Robbins Building, Los Angeles, F. Morrison Boyd, 1925. The two-story commercial structure with a faux peaked roof at the left of the facade has a large series of circular signs with each letter of the "Robbins" name, while below that are the words "Jewelry," "Credit," and "Clothes." An awning spans the length of the frontage. Some pedestrians and parked cars are in front, and portions of other buildings are at the sides and in the background. On the reverse in pencil is "Robbins." Boyd, road scout for the American Automobile Association, was on a 37,000-mile trip through the U.S., Mexico and Canada. With light soiling, the condition is good.
