Description
Photograph of children in an automobile camp under eucalyptus trees at the Los Angeles Municipal Camp Grounds, Elysian Park, January 1923. In the left foreground, two young girls are leaning against a long horizontal piece of wood while a rope extends from it and up to another standing tree on the right. Clothes are hanging from this rope and partially covering a tent seen behind them.
In the left corner of the foreground, an automobile is partially visible parked in front of a cabin which is seen in the left background. Another automobile is seen behind the tent parked in front of what appears to be an elevated patio with tables
cabins are seen along the patio. A hillside is visible in the far background.
