Small house and garage pictured on right side of photo. The view is across field of grass toward San Gabriel Mountains in background. Dramatic clouds fill the sky. There is a bare, tall Lombardy Poplar pictured near the wash. Caption on photo says it is Santa Anita Wash, but viewer is not aware of it. It must lie along left side of photo.
A large group is pictured sitting or standing near entrance to Sturtevant Camp dining room. (Camp was one of many in San Gabriel Mountains; it was up Big Santa Anita Canyon.) In back row, on left, man in dark shirt and tie next to pillar, is John C. Juvinall of Monrovia.
View from back yard of Ramuz family home on Arcadia Ave. looking north toward San Gabriel Mountains. (Later they would build home on South Santa Anita in conjunction with their business, The Arcadia Nursery.) There are two small houses, one on left is still under construction. Just to left of center is a power pole. Line of eucalyptus in background apparently was along Huntington Drive.
Adjoining reed houses with sloping thatch-type roofs are shown with a group of Indians sitting by them. One small Indian girl is standing by group with her hands on her hips. This photograph belongs to the Huntington Library. It is shown here for research only.
Front view of brick building, probably built as a home in 1930's, but used primarily as a business. It is located at 22 E. Foothill Blvd, south side. There is a large (bare) jacaranda tree on right side of entrance in this photo.
House at 22 E. Foothill Blvd. It housed a dress shop called the Copy Cat from about 1967-1975. During the 1930's and a bit into the 1940's, it was operated as a popular family restaurant. Prior to the Copy Cat years (about 1952-1960), Rita Thompson had it as her real estate office.
Building at 22 E. Foothill Blvd (south side), apparently used as a residence and later for a business. This view is from west end of building, showing main (brick) part. Note arched windows.

View west of bungalow with chimney on east side. In 1939 City Directory, this was called Ivy Cottage Restaurant, at 22 E. Foothill. In 1931-32 City Directory, listed as Gansers Ltd. - Preserves. This was the first time this address showed in the city directory, so building apparently dates to 1930. Last business to use it was the Copy Cat custom dress design shop.
