Description: ANSWER: This replica of the great Lincoln Memorial statue, the figure gazing pensively at the flood-channel Los Angeles River, sits strikingly among other castoff properties behind Republic studios out on Ventura Blvd. The photo was made from the new Colfax Ave. bridge.
Caption: KNOW YOUR CITY, NO. 241 -- You will never guess what or where this is. It certainly is not the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. It's in city limits. Could not pass up this majestic dignity amid the rubble. See Page, 23 Part l.
