We can see that back in 1928, when this image was captured, Universal Studios was still surrounded by the citrus orchards that used to blanket the entire San Fernando Valley. These days, the studio grounds probably cover most of the land we can see in this photo. But I do wonder if the people working there at the time could smell the oranges and lemons growing on the other side of the fence. Assuming, of course, that there even was a fence!
