Description
Photograph of a panorama of the Venice-Ocean Park Annual Review, 1923. A number of women, many with their pageant numbers visible on their arms, stand shoulder to shoulder in a row along a wooden plank walkway, facing the camera. Some carry parasols while others wear bathing suits or character costumes. At the far right of the image, four men stand behind the women. Visible in the left background is a birdge, as well as the "Hotel Cadilla[c]" and the "Paloma Apts". Other residential buildings line the center and right backgrounds. Marked on the negative in the lower left corner is "Venice-Ocean Park, Annual Review 1923", and in the lower right corner "Copyright 2463-2 Weaver".
