Description
Photo is a gift of the Daniel A. Johnson family.
Clusters of sunbathers enjoy a warm summer day on the surf, the sand and under the sun at Ocean Park Beach. Dozens more wearing their "Sunday best" - long dresses, suits, and hats - are seen strolling along the boardwalk. The ornate building on the extreme left is possibly the Ocean Park Bathhouse, while the building to the right of it has a sign advertising "Fanjoy Foto", "Ice Cream", and "Tobacco". Several more buildings that appear to be residential homes can be seen in the background.
