Description
Photograph of one-acre farms showing small home near El Monte, California, August 1927. In the extreme foreground at center, a paved road can be seen extending from left to right. Along the side of the road, patches of tall grass and weeds are visible. To the far right, a large tree stands on the corner of the lawn, while another tree sits at the center of the lawn. The tree at center partially obscures the home in the background. The single-level home shows two small windows and a covered entryway. Plants and ivy grow along the front of the house. To the far left, a small line of trees and bushes are visible.
