Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
Photograph caption dated April 7, 1927 reads, "Death Valley isn't exactly a honeymoon paradise, but that's where Park L. Turrill and his pretty bride are going, and what's more, they are taking a crowd along. Mr. Turrill, Glendale high school chemistry instructor, and his bride, formerly Virginia Abbey of U.C.L.A., and an ex-student of his, will lead 110 students on an annual Death Valley exploation [sic] party." This location appears to be the Devil's Golf Course.
