Description
Photograph of women in a line in pajama-like clothing, San Diego, 1926. The women stand in a close line with each woman grasping the right foot of the woman in front of them. The pajamas are tank tops with loose pants which drop down to their shins. Their dark shoes shine against the dirt ground below. A staircase extends from behind the girl on the far left up to the doorway of a house which stands behind them under walls of climbing plant life. "From left to right are Rae Hawes, Louise Hawes, Betty Conway, Hazle Meyers, Sarah Ammon, Aileen Worth, and Corrine Worth standing in a line in San Diego in 1926, wearing pajama-like clothing. Photo has been hand-colored".
