Description
Photograph of the front drive of a house at H.W. Mennig's pear ranch, half a mile northeast of Palmdale, in August 1929. A winding drive curves in front of a driveway at left, before the entrance to the house, which stands beneath a small roofed extension. The house is a light-colored one-story structure, and one can see windows and glass doors by its visible side, at right. Several trees spread their branches across the foreground, and one casts its shadow over a grassy lawn at right.
