Out for a walk at the California Alligator Farm, Los Angeles, Callifornia
The VanOrnum Colorprint Co., Los Angeles, California
A man on the left pulls an alligator on a leash after him on a lawn. The Los Angeles Alligator Farm was an attraction from 1907 to 1984, at this location until 1953, when it moved to Buena Park. The publisher's number on the back is A 113. The slogan "On the Road of a Thousand Wonders" indicates that this may have been part of a promotion of The Coast Line-Shasta Route of the Southern Pacific Railroad, for which there are promotional booklets from 1907 and 1908.
