Description
Photograph of Main Street, looking south in Palm Springs, ca.1915. There is a convertible car on the right side of the unpaved but well trodden street. Standing near this car is a man in driving clothes holding a small box. There is another person walking on the left side of the street, which is lined with buildings and trees. A sign on one of these buildings reads "[...]Bunkers Garage" and there is a car parked in front of it. There are several more people and cars further in the background, where there are many more buildings as well.
