About This Item
Los Angeles, 1936; Vintage 8" x 10" silver gelatin photograph of Los Angeles Motor Coach Company’s double-decker bus #1013, which once ran the Wilshire Express route between Beverly Hills and Santa Monica. A number of riders can be seen seated atop the bus in the open air. License plate dated 1936. Excellent condition, clean, bright, glossy, unfaded, no chips or tears. There is a soft vertical crease about 4" in length located approximately one-third of the way in from the left-hand margin, with no cracking or tearing of the paper. A glimpse back at life in the halcyon days of 1930’s Los Angeles. From the estate of James S. Copley (1916-1973), owner and C.E.O of Copley News Service, which published, among numerous other newspapers, the Santa Monica Breeze. Not stamped, but most certainly from the Breeze photo morgue.
