The cards on this page show Palm Avenue, a pedestrian path from entrance of Sutro Heights (Geary/48th Avenue) to the parapet overlooking Ocean Beach.
- Weidner 292, postmarked 4/05/1908.
- Newman V163, postmarked SF 4/21/1910, same image. I particularly enjoy the photographer (Weidner?) standing at his tripod.
- Mitchell 44. The left side of the Mitchell card matches Weidner and Newman, but the right side is completely different! Where's the photographer?

- Charlton 262, postmarked SF 7/13/1907. A Mitchell 262 variant postmarked 1/03/1908 uses the same layout/stock number/image.
- Mitchell 262, the same image and same stock number on a later divided back card.
- Crocker, postmarked SF 5/15/190? (postmark year missing), again the same image.
- Cardinell-Vincent 1202, with a P.P.I.E. seal and the Southern Pacific tagline "On the Road of a Thousand Wonders".
Palm Avenue looks like this in 2020. The 1915 P.P.I.E. had its own Palm Avenue, much grander than Sutro's.
