Description
Photograph of a panorama of Hollywood, showing Hotel Wilcox (foreground), and Hollywoodland sign on the mountains in the distance, 1927. Lightly-colored tenement buildings are pictured to the left, with the hills in the background, an "H" visible in the side of the most distant ridge. Farther right, the Hotel Wilcox is pictured along with the Hollywoodland sign and what appears to be a weather or hot-air balloon. Other legible signs from left to right read "Garage" and "Nash. Richershauser and Miller".
