Historic Images of Los Angeles on Flickr




Love_field_texas_loc

This is my new favorite thing: The Library of Congress’ Flickr account with thousands of photos such as the panorama of flying officers at Love Field, Texas, Aug. 20, 1918.

First_woman_jury_loc

And this is the first all-woman jury in Los Angeles, from the Bain News Service, Nov. 2, 1911. Update: This is the first all-woman jury in California. They acquitted the editor of the Watts News of printing obscene and indecent language.

P51_north_american_loc_02

And here’s a P-51 being built at North American Aviation about 1942. (Note: The scan was quite dark so I lightened it up a bit. Someone more skillful than I could probably get a very nice picture out of this).
