This interesting photograph was recently listed on eBay




eBay for search purposes:.... Laurel Canyon Blvd. Bridge - Feb. 26, 1929



It appears the bridge is newly finished. There are a group of workmen on the right edge of the photograph and, if you look closely, there are two workers on the opposite side of the bridge near the fine looking house.





Here are the two men on the far side of the bridge. . . as well as a closer look at the house.


detail

I took Laurel Canyon Blvd. daily when I first moved to Lo Angeles and I don't remember driving over any bridge on Laurel Canyon Blvd. that was remotely like this one.

What happened to it?




Update.

oops. . you're correct odinthor. I thought it was a man facing the camera and bending over.
