Description
Photograph of flood damage in unidentified farmland, 1938. At center, a pool of shallow water is visible, cutting through pebbles and rubble. To the left, a concrete sluice is broken and terminates at the water. In the background, a large chunk of pavement inclines toward the pool at center. Between the two, a hill and a stand of trees can be seen. In the distance beyond, an automobile and homestead can be seen. Photoprint reads: "This photograph is loaned to you. Please return to: Illustrator. L.A. City Planning Dept. Rm. 361 F. City Hall, Los Angeles, California".
