1900s - Watering Trough at San Fernando and Olive Avenue

The Women's Christian Temperance Union, and organization which developed to oppose the sale and consumption of liquor, erected a water fountain at the corner of San Fernando Road and Olive Avenue. It was a watering trough for horses, cattle, and other animals. The fountain was near the Burbank Villa. This image came from a collection of images donated by the Delores Palmer Estate. She was a BUSD employee for many years and authored the book "A History of Burbank."
