    Description

    Here is an amazing antique photo album contianing 108 original photographs, mostly of Southern California, c. 1910 - 1913. There are some rare, historic photos in this collection; places that either no longer exist or look much different now. These photos are of a different California, before the degradation and decline of today. The album is quite large. There are many blank/unused pages. Some pages are loose.
