Description
Photograph of an aerial view of Avalon Harbor on Catalina Island showing a fleet of small boats in the water and on the beach, ca.1905. A large steamer is approaching a wooden pier at center. In the foreground, numerous small rowboats are floating around the smooth water. Still more boats are beached on the crescent-shaped shoreline at left. The city of Avalon is at left and is composed of several large waterfront buildings, including one with a conical roof in the foreground. There are tall mountains bordering the town in the distance.
