Description
Photograph of workers grading Hollywood Boulevard for the Rail Road, Hollywood, California, ca.1898. Two men hunch over at the left of the frame along an unpaved road, shoveling. Behind them, to the right, a wide locomotive engine that looks somewhat like a tank billows smoke, trailing two cargo cars filled with dirt or some other type of powder. A house can be seen behind the foliage in the distance between them. A tree stands in the foreground at right.
