    This collection consists of 63 photographic prints and 87 black-and-white transparencies documenting the California Botanic Garden in approximately 1928, the year it opened to the public in Los Angeles County. The prints are 8 x 10 inches and are stamped with the credit of the "Dick" Whittington Studio, and depict overviews of the garden, walking paths, a waterfall, and a variety of plantings throughout the canyon, along with administrative offices, visitors, and a portrait of president Elmer D. Merrill. The film transparencies appear to show opening day festivities, 1928, with tree plantings, speakers and guests, and students with posters promoting the garden. The actress Mary Pickford, a supporter, poses in a few images. Contact prints of the transparencies were made by the Library and are available to view in Box 1.
