The Colorado Street Bridge (1913) spans the seasonally wet ravine Arroyo Seco that runs from the San Gabriel Mountains to the Los Angeles River. Until the Ventura Freeway was built beside it in the mid-20th century, it was the only way to drive west out of Pasadena, and it became part of Route 66. The Teich organization's logo is on the divided back along with the production number R-49528. (This is the same publication number as for PC-001-994, clearly the same image.)
