Description
Photograph of S.S. Ohio at sea with fair winds, during the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce's voyage to Hawaii, 1907. A crowd of people can be seen either standing grouped together or sitting down on folding chairs with umbrellas. They are all wearing semi-formal clothes while positioned on deck. Two large wooden poles, which appears to be a sailing vessel is visible horizontally above the people with a ladder attached to it on the bottom it extends from the right towards the center background and metal poles and ropes support it. Auxiliary boats are noticeable to the left and right side. A body of water is observable in the background which extends into the horizon.
