Photograph of a view of Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, showing the Warner Brothers Studio, Los Angeles, ca.1926. Automobiles are parked along the left sidewalk while still others navigate the boulevard. To the left, the Romanesque architecture of the Warner Bros.

Palm trees approximately eight feet high line the outer edge of the left sidewalk. Shops and small businesses comprise the other side of the boulevard. Legible signs include: "Hotel Ir[...]", "Colonial Auto Service / Richfield Gasoline", "Plumbing", and "Hud[son] Ess[...]".
