These three photographs show women in swimsuits near the streets of Venice Beach riding on blocks of ice.

The frame at top right shows three women sitting together on an ice block in siwmsuits and heels, holding on to a rope. In the third frame at bottom, three women are "ice-block" skiing, and waving to the camera. Appears to be a publicity photograph for the Miss California Bathing Beauty Contest.
