Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of the exterior of Eddie's Dining Room standing alongside a trail in Santa Anita Canyon. The trail stretches along the bottom edge of the image and narrows as it curves out of frame to the right. The dining room stands at left in partial view. It extends out of frame at left and back along the trail towards the right. A sign high over the door reads, "DINING ROOM." A couple of trees rise from the trail at center in front of the restaurant. A sign posted to one of the trees reads, "Eddie's DINING ROOM." Along the right side of the building, a posted sign reads, "HEADQUAR[TERS...] FOR PACK ANI[...] [????] ANIMAL [...] AND FROM [...] [????] [....] OR PHONE SER[VICE?] [...] MADRE [???]-[...]." Two horses stand tethered to a tree on the trail at right. Trees stand on the hillside in the distance at right. Text from negative sleeve: 1223. Santa Anita Canyon, about 1935. Gene Velzy had a cabin up in the canyon and Glen Velzy and I went up, with some other fellows to open the trout season. It was the spring after the big flood in the canyon. We had to hike in from below the dam. 1. The Santa Anita canyon dam from the trail above it. 2. A resort. Can't tell now whether First Water or Hoegee Camp. 3. The stream in the canyon. The flood ma [sic] made a new channel and it ran right thru the trees. 4. A dandy pool in the big rocks. It's [sic] size may be judged from the size of the man fishing off the rock on the right side. He is sitting down. 4 films
