Description
Photograph of children on swings and other playground equipment at Big Pines, ca.1930. Children play on a large metal structure embedded in what appears to be a sand pit. To the right of center, three children are visible on the swings with one child being aided by an adult. To the left of center, a young girl grasps the handles of a set of rings while children in the background gather in a group and others climb on a pole and a ladder. In the center of the background, a large adult can be seen with hands on hips apparently supervising the children in front of a hillside.
