PC-001-376

A scene on a Los Angeles highway, Joshua trees near El Centro, California

 

 

 

The Albertype Co., Brooklyn, New York

This card looks exactly like PC-001-374 except for the title in the bottom margin of the other postcard. These cards have the same publisher and contributor. The difference in format probably reflects a difference in dates, with this one being the younger, because white margins like the ones on the other card indicate a later, ink-saving innovation. "Los Angeles Highway" as used in the title could refer to State Route 86 or 99, passing west of the Salton Sea. This looks like a Real Photo Post Card, but it is probably a collotype, or gelatin process photograph.
