Home of Ramona
At Rancho Camulos

Penny postcard, "Old Home of Ramona at Camulos," 1910s-20s. M. Rieder, Publ., Los Angeles, Cal. No. 9369. Made in Germany.Those who believe the characters in Helen Hunt Jackson's 1884 novel "Ramona" are based on the Del Valle family of Rancho Camulos would say that the upper porch shown here is where the story's Señor Felipe, ill of the fever, lay on the pallet of hide that Alessandro made for him.
