Description
Photograph of women wearing bathing suits tossing a ball at a Los Angeles area beach, ca.1930. Seven women who are shot from an elevated angle appear to run towards a ball that is elevated to the right of center. Four of the women wear darkly colored bathing suits while three wear lightly colored suits. The women's feet sink in wet sand and a wave seems to recede into the ocean immediately behind them.
