Discover the heart of Southern California as it stood in early 1910s travel culture.

This edition highlights Pasadena as “the crown city” of the San Gabriel Valley, famed for a near-perfect climate, scenic surroundings, and a thriving winter population.

Beyond climate, the guide showcases Pasadena’s culture and commerce: elegant hotel life, ample amusements, and a growing commercial scene. It explores the city’s theatres, golf courses, polo, tennis, and festive events like the Rose Tournament, a famed New Year’s tradition that blends pageantry with community spirit. The issue also highlights practical matters for visitors and residents, including banking facilities, public services, and easy access to nearby Los Angeles’ cultural attractions.

Insight into local life: hotels, theatres, golf, polo, and seasonal events.
Practical guidance on banking, commerce, and travel connections in Southern California.
