1929 Biltmore Hotel Pershing Square Los Angeles California

This 1929 postcard captures a glamorous slice of old Los Angeles, featuring the elegant Biltmore Hotel overlooking Pershing Square. Opened in 1923, the Biltmore quickly became a symbol of Hollywood-era opulence, hosting movie stars, presidents, and even the early Academy Awards. Its Italian-Renaissance design, with lavish interiors and grand ballrooms, made it the crown jewel of downtown L.A. Just across from the hotel, Pershing Square offered a green escape in the midst of the growing city, often bustling with picnics, parades, and musicians. Together, they represent a golden moment in Los Angeles history—full of promise, style, and undeniable charm.

This postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
