The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Pasadena, California, is the subject of this photograph, dated to about 1910. Christian Science, founded by Mary Baker Eddy in Boston in 1879, spread quickly in the early twentieth century, and its congregations often built churches in growing cities across the country. Pasadena, then known for its mild climate, resort hotels, and steady population growth, was one such place. The date comes from an unverified caption card, so the building's exact history is worth checking against local sources.
