Description
Photograph of ushers(?) lined in a V-formation inside the San Diego Pantages Theater, 1925. Women are visible at center wearing identical outfits of white slacks, black patent-leather flat Mary Jane shoes, black berets, and shiny black long-sleeved shirts with white collars and cuffs. One woman can be seen standing in front while six women trail to the left and right of her. They are standing on a patterned carpet, and a staircase leads upwards at right. A light can be seen hanging from the ceiling, while the wall behind the women is composed of large stone bricks. Photoprint reads: "[from left to right] Auralia Lopez, Mary Jane Sylvester, Maxine Irwin, Ruth Bastin, Jessie Dauford, Betty Conway, Bobbie Gothe, Ella Duealy, Helene Meyers, [unidentified woman], Betty Lou Goodwin, Dorothy Penrod".
