Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of the backside of H. H. West's home on Griffin Avenue, taken after the removal of vines and rose bushes. Overgrown grass spans the yard in the foreground. The yard stretches back at right, towards the rear of the house. The back of the house is viewed close-up and at an angle. The side of the house extends out-of-frame at right. The first story of the house is constructed of slats and the upper story is constructed of shingles. A shed juts out from the back of the house at center. To the left of it, a long staircase leads up to the second floor. In front of the shed and to the right of the staircase, a concrete patio sits in the yard. Two chairs line the near left edge of the patio. A tree stands along the left edge of the image and hovers over the patio. Text from negative sleeve: 2039. 2223 Griffin Avenue, Los Angeles, October 1943. Three views of the rear yard after we cut down all the vines and rose bushes. 3 films
