This vintage chrome-era postcard features a stunning view of the Yorba-Slaughter Adobe, located in Chino, California. The image showcases the historic grounds, featuring a rustic wooden pergola and a large iron kettle suspended by chains, with a classic wagon wheel leaning in the foreground. This site is a significant example of early California architecture, originally built between 1850 and 1853 by Raimundo Yorba and later purchased by Fenton Mercer Slaughter in 1868.
Rich in history, this location served as a vital stop for the Butterfield Stage Coach during the mid-19th century, where teams of horses were changed for the long journey across the West. The postcard was published by Columbia Wholesale Supply and features vibrant photography by David Rubinoff. It is a perfect addition for collectors of California history, stagecoach memorabilia, or regional San Bernardino County landmarks.
