Archiving Angeles (AA): (Street)Car Culture

There was a time when people walked. A time when men would dress in their best 3-piece suits to take a Yellow Car to 5th & Broadway for a fountain drink at the Owl Drug Company. A time when a city took pride in its buildings. Its street lamps. Itself.
The year was 1925.
