Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the wireless telegraph station in Avalon, [s.d.]. The station is housed in a small, single-story building on the side of a hill at center. A very tall antenna rises up from near the building at left. The antenna is held in place by several long wires that extend to the ground. The hillside in the foreground is covered with beavertail cactus. In the background, the ocean is visible. The water has been extensively touched up to the point that it is a different color than the rest of the image.
