Description
Photograph of people playing golf on a miniature golf course, ca.1930. In the right foreground, a man can be seen standing on a mini golf course while holding a putter. A small sign is noticeable next to him which says: "11", "Par 3" and "Length 39Ft.". Small chairs and rocks are observable around the putting surface. Behind this man, a small wooden bridge leads to another course where a woman is standing on another mini course while holding a golf club. To her left, a third man is standing on another putting surface, who seems to be reaching for a golfball. Further in the back, wooden chairs and benches under drawn umbrellas are visible. To the left of the center, two additional mini courses are visible. All the mini golf courses are surrounded by small bushes and a grassy lawn. The patio of a house can be seen in the right, on an elevated area, and what appears to be the side wall of a building covers the backdrop.
