Description
Photograph of a view of the Hotel Metropole with the shore of the harbor in the foreground, Avalon, Catalina, ca.1900. The three-story wooden hotel can be seen in the background at center. It is a large, dark-colored building with a steeply sloped roof. An American flag flies from a cupola in the middle of the building. In the foreground, a collection of small rowboats and dinghies are beached on the sand. A sign advertises that these boats are for rent. Several small vendor tents are set up on the beach. The calm water of the harbor can be seen in the foreground.
