Two panoramic drawings depicting views from the tower of the Baker Block, Los Angeles, ca.1889

Photograph of two panoramic drawings depicting views from the tower of the Baker Block, Los Angeles, ca.1889. The top panorama looks southwest over a cityscape of Victorian three-story houses. Picture File Card reads: "Showing Court House under construction". Pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages make their way down the street at the extreme left. The lower panorama shows a four-lane making its way down the center of the image to the mountains in the background. It is flanked to either side by Victorian-style tenement buildings. The road forks off into a smaller road to the near the center of the frame. Streetcars and horse-drawn carriages navigate it. The illustration is most likely by Ward Brothers of Columbus, Ohio.
