Illustration from a book on the Golden Gate Park aviary
1917
A plate from Edith Kinney Stellmann's "Katie of Birdland: An Idyl of the Aviary in Golden Gate Park," published in San Francisco by H.S. Crocker Co. The book treats the park's aviary and its talking birds as a subject worth writing about, and its illustrations record how the young park was presented to city readers. Digitized by the Internet Archive from a copy held by a private contributing library.
