Photograph of a view of Fish Harbor showing boats docked to piers with canneries in the background, San Pedro, February 10, 1928. Boats can be seen lined up next to one another along the pier from left towards the right background. Buildings line the dock, and one reads "Seacoast Packing Corp." Another building at center and inland reads, "Van Camp Sea Food Co." Small buildings raised from the ground also line the pier. A few smoke stacks can be seen in the background.
