This view of an aerospace company campus in the early 1950s shows the contrast between the firm's Mediterranean Revival-style administration building - a hallmark of interwar and wartime industrial architecture in Southern California - and the adjacent production hangar, whose roof still carries the checkerboard camouflage pattern applied during World War II. The period automobiles filling the parking areas help date the photograph to the postwar era, when many aircraft manufacturers continued operating from their wartime facilities into the Cold War years.
