EL PASEO DE LOS ANGELES, OLVERA STREET
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA .
A Mexican street of yesterday in a city of today. Here
is shown the birthplace of Los Angeles in 1781 and on
this same street stands two of the city's oldest buildings.

[postmark: LOS ANGELES CALIF. TERMINAL ANNEX 1964 // JY 10 PM]

Hello, dear Rose Hecht
I think of you so
often, and hope that
you are bearing up.
L.A. is hot, smoggy, and
boring as ever - but I
am working, and pay
no attention to it. --
I just wanted to say "hello"
to you. As ever -- Silvia Regan [Ellstein]
