Text from negative sleeve: 1877. Los Angeles, California. 1644 Wellington Road. 1918. In 1918 I bought from Hyman Kauffman a shoe dealer on Main Street opposite the City Hall the residence of 1644 Wellington Road, Lafayette Square, for $9500.00, payable one quarter down, and balance on monthly payments. I sold my house at 165 South Harvard Boulevard and moved to Wellington road in the fall of 1918. 1. Large film showing the place, with Frances West, left, and Elizabeth West, right, on the driveway. 2. A small film of the place. 2 films.
