Hollywood Farm, in Woodinville, was built by the Frederick Stimson family. They used it as a weekend retreat and summer home. Milk and cream from the farm's prize-winning Holstein dairy herd was sent to Seattle by railroad. Seattleites visited by train and bought cream, ice cream, and sausages at the farm's ice cream parlor.

This aerial photo is part of a collection from McBride and Anderson photographers. Born in 1863, Ella McBride began working in the photography field in 1909 when she managed the Edward Curtis Studio. She opened her own studio in 1917 with Wayne Albee. Albee moved to San Diego in 1925, and McBride continued to operate a studio in various Seattle locations. In 1932 she partnered with Richard Anderson; they continued to work together until she retired in 1954 due to her failing eyesight. She died in 1965 at the age of 102.
