Aerial view of the San Fernando Valley of today, a busy, amazing wonderland whose growth and progress is one of the most magnificent chapters in the golden history of the golden west. It is a far cry from the historic day 187 years ago when Gaspar de Portola, Spanish provincial governor, led his party into the valley. Photo dated: February 25, 1957.
