Nice shot of Prudent's house by our friend C.C. Pierce.


View of the Prudent Beaudry residence, Los Angeles, C.C. Pierce, ca.1920

'Photograph of the Prudent Beaudry residence on New High Street behind the Brunswig Building, Los Angeles, about 1920. A narrow, three-story tenement building is shown, with steps leading up to its second-floor side entrance. Few windows are built on the structure, with only two to a story at the building's face and one per story on each flanking side. A small balcony extends from the second floor, while the fire-escape platform extends from the rightmost window of the third story. A telephone pole and fire hydrant partially obscure the home's front. A hill with a rosebush is visible at left, while a second building can be seen behind the residence at right which advertises "Gasoline".'
