I recently found this picture of the Papago Buttes in 1930. It gives you an idea of how rural the area was then! I found it on a great facebook site call Vintage Phoenix. If you have a facebook page and like history check it out!

  1. Looks like a Ramada in the distance at the tip of the top of the Saguaro...yes? Could be a scene straight out of a John Wayne movie from the 1930s....

  2. Take Don up on liking the facebook page, Vintage Phoenix. Great pictures, stories and memories from all over metro Phoenix. If you are new to the area, you will be amazed at what "we" used to look like, if you are an old-timer - you will have alot of "I remember that...."

    You can find it easily at this url: http://on.fb.me/YXXB4O

  3. Vintage Phoenix is one of my favorite pages! A few months ago they posted an album of Tovrea Packing images.
