| Title: | Cypress Point, Monterey County |
| Notes: | CMP notes: Verso mount: Inscribed in pencil by Peterson's hand: Cypress Point, Monterey, and Cypress Monterey, just disappearing from that locality. They are hundreds of years old, and are very similar to the cypress trees of Lebanon--mentioned in the Bible. These trees were greatly admired by Mrs. Stanford, she often going to Del Monte for a fortnight's rest. The series contains several views along the coast, showing the general characteristics of that part of California. |
