Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of the former residence of boxer Jim Jeffries and family on Cypress Avenue, viewed at a distance. Sparse land with tall grasses and shrubbery stretches across the foreground and into the distance. The Jeffries residence stands in the distance, just right-of-center. It is viewed at an angle from the front and the side; it faces towards the right. Trees surround it on either side. Text from negative sleeve: 1946. Los Angeles, California. Cypress Avenue, 1936. The old Jeffries home. 1. The big two story house on the little hill north of the arroyo seco on Cypress Street, where the Jeffries family lived. In 1888 the place was a landmark, and it was a great treat for us to go out over the arroyo and visit Jim and Jack Jeffries, and their sister Lily. She married a Metcalf. 1 film.
