Description
Photographic portrait of two automobiles filled with motorists in front of the O.W. Childs residence on Twelfth Street west of Main Street, Los Angeles, ca.1904. A man and a woman sit in the back of the leftmost automobile while an elderly woman heavily wrapped in clothes sits in front to the right of an empty driver's seat. The subsequent automobile shows a second rider's face just visible beyond the driver. The property of O.W. Childs is visible beyond the picket fence in the background, but no house is markedly visible. The road appears to be unpaved.
