Description: Crowded beach scene near the Venice Bathing Pavilion and Abbot Kinney Pier. Although the sender of this postcard refers to staying at the Hotel Waldorf, it is not pictured here; it opened in 1915, the same year as the postmark. Written on back: "Hotel Waldorf, Venice. Surfbathing here is just like the picture. The waves were so rough today that I didn't enjoy them at all. Have been in Los Angeles a week, but are -- here a week or two --- N.M.G." Addressed to: Mrs. Isaac Geer, Norwich, Conn. RFD #6.
