Description
An orange tree presents to the left side of this circa 1945 postcard, taken from the west end of the Capitol Park and showing the rear and apse of the California State Capitol building. The section was removed in 1950/51 to make room for a new Capitol annex. It was from the east side apse that, in 1903, President Teddy Roosevelt addressed -- up to that time -- the largest crowd to ever assemble in Sacramento.
