  Photographs of Los Angeles Old Chinatown, First Street Bridge, and an unidentified trestle bridge

  Visual Materials

  Three cabinet photographs of early Los Angeles, California, most likely taken in the1880s. The first is an elevated view of Calle de Los Negros in Old Chinatown by photographer F. G. Schumacher, showing a dirt road, adobe buildings, horse-drawn wagons, and a few people. The second photograph is marked in ink "First St. Bridge," and shows a partially washed-out wooden bridge over the flooded Los Angeles River. A man on horseback and a photographer with a large box camera are on the shore. The third cabinet photograph is of an unidentified railroad trestle bridge spanning a canyon or river.
