Description
Photograph of a view of the outer harbor at San Pedro, showing several sailing ships and Deadman's Island, ca.1905. Eleven tall wooden ships are visible in the distance. All have several masts, but none has any sails up. There is a small steam tug pulling one of the ships at left. At left, the small rocky top of Deadman's Island is visible, connected to the shore by a narrow rocky strip of land. A large breakwater cuts into the ocean from left, and the rocky shoreline is visible in the foreground. There is a wooden pier in the background at right.
