Mirror Lake, Smiley Heights, Redlands, California

 

circa 1908

 

 

The same image is at PC-002-724 entitled "A corner in Canyon Crest Park." Canyon Crest Park was the Smiley family's name for the area called Smiley Heights, and it was where they lived and landscaped and built reservoirs. The family donated money, time, and their names to several Redlands landmarks. In this image a woman in a shirtwaist with mutton-chop sleeves, long skirt, and reticule is looking at flowers around the edge of one of the reservoirs, which is surrounded as well by trees, pampas grass, and a small ramada. The publisher's number H 82 is on the divided back along with the railroad-promotion motto "On the Road of a thousand wonders."
