Description
Photograph of exterior of the San Pedro Lumber Company and Associated Oil, ca.1920. At center in the foreground, a small sign lies crumpled next to a large utility pole. A small street stretching from the foreground right of the image to the background left can be seen with automobiles driving on both sides. Lines of utility poles crowd the edge of the street on both sides. In the background at center, a large structure stands behind a chain link fence near a line of low buildings. A sign near the roof of the structure reads: "Associated Supply Co". More buildings are also seen to the right of the structure. To the far left, a large darkly-colored cylinder surrounded by multiple pipes can be seen. In the extreme foreground, patches of tall grass and weeds stand near the side of the road.
