Description
Photograph of view of a snow-covered Pico Boulevard east from Union Avenue in Los Angeles, January 9, 1930. Shops and sidewalks line the street at right. Park along the sidewalks are four early automobiles
another car can be seen traveling at left on the wet street. There are Victorian houses and a tall three-story rectangular building in the background at left. Most of the snow has melted and it has left large puddles that reflect the surrounding scenery. Legible signs include, from left, "ZM8581", "Albertson & Curly Santa Monica", "Tailoring", and "First Class Shoe Repair".
