Description
A real photo postcard of Chinatown, Los Angeles, postmarked 1909 August 28. The image shows several commercial buildings in the Chinatown area east of the Plaza. To the right are some Chinese characters and a statement by the writer of the message that these were written by a Chinese fortune teller and mean "Happy New Year from Los A. Cal." A longer message is on the back, along with two one-cent stamps, a cancellation stamp, and a postmark. "Your card of about a month ago read in due time." -- first line. With soiling, smeared ink, edge wear, and some creases, the overall condition is good.
