Photo of log cabin bearing a sign which reads:"Old Log Cabin. In the early 1880's E.J. Baldwin had this log cabin transported from his father's farm in Hamilton, Indiana, where he spent his early boyhood, to Rancho Santa Anita." We have been told signs like this identifying the various places of interest on the Baldwin Ranch were prevalent.
