Euclid Avenue had trolley (streetcar) service in its center divide. Here the tracks are in the foreground leading to a car in the distance, with trees on both sides. Printed on the divided back is a promotional message: "Ontario--Most beautiful city in Southern Callifornia at foot of Old Baldy, midway between Los Angeles and Riverside, Redlands and San Bernardino." "Old Baldy" is a nickname for Mount San Antonio in the San Bernardino Mountains.

Preceding the title on the bottom is the number 2108. At the bottom right of the dividing line on the back of the card is Curt Teich's number A1713, indicating production between 1907 and 1908.
