Image of the interior of the bowling alley and billiards building at the Looff Pleasure Pier in Santa Monica, California. Signs above the bowling lanes read "Do not loft the ball or step over the foul line." This is a copy negative (a photograph of another photograph). Title based on note from donor Ernest Marquez: "Looff Pleasure Pier, bowling alley," written on envelope in which the negative was received; date devised by cataloger based on the year the bowling and billiards building opened (information from the Santa Monica History Museum metadata for the same image).
