Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of a Woodlin electric refrigerator standing on the sidewalk in front of the H. H. West Company offices on Omar Avenue. The refrigerator stands on a sidewalk in the foreground, off-center to the left. It is viewed at an angle from the front and faces slightly right. Its door stands open to the right; a few items sit on the middle shelf. Across the front of the top shelf, it reads, "Woodlin." Beneath the unit, the sidewalk stretches across the bottom edge. In the background, the facade of the H. H. West Company's office building stands across the image. A large window sits behind and to the right of the refrigerator. A portion of a sign that sits in the window reads, "[...] CO." An open doorway leading into the building stands along the left edge. Beyond the doorway, a staircase inside the building is barely visible in the shadows. An opaque patch of white occupies the lower right corner. Text from negative sleeve: 2382. Los Angeles, California 314 Omar Avenue. May 19, 1948. 6 films of the Woodlin Electric Refrigerator
