Los Angeles home. circa 1945

Notice the huge joshua tree at the right edge of the picture.
A car ran a stop sign on the cross street (Hubbard St.), caused a collision
and sent a car careening into the tree to knock it down some time in the late 40s.

Below: He mows the lawn. We can see the shadow of the joshua tree across the
left side of the picture, with the foliage shading the house behind him. c. 1947.
