Very difficult to assemble a collection in such great condition: 1) real photo postcard; 2) 1915 medallion; 3) tape measure; 4) match safe; 5) Mirror. Opened in 1896, The Cawston Ostrich Farm used its proximity to the Pasadena and Los Angeles Electric Railway's trolley line to bring many tourists to visit the farm. Guests were able to ride on the backs of ostriches, be taken for ostrich drawn carriage rides and buy ostrich feathered hats, boas, capes and fans at the Ostrich Farm store that was connected to the factory. The ostrich farm feather products were shipped and sold throughout the world. The farm closed in 1935. South Pasadena California Salvatore Falcone Collection
