California dreaming...

I love this photograph. According to the drum its the first California Corps (what fantastic faith - Corps were numbered even when they only had one!).

TSA arrived in LA in 1892, this pictue must have been taken prior to 1900. It's a real wild west picture. I wonder if anyone out there can spread any further light on the photo?

If you click on the image you can see the photo full size.

Love and prayers

In the background, on the wall, it says, "Oakland Daily..." I'm guessing the band is from Oakland. You could try sending the picture to Clinton Timmer, who is at the Western Territory's Museum. He might be able to shed some more light on the picture. Clinton.Trimmer@usw.sarmy.org
