Description
Photograph of an amateur game of baseball at Griffith Park, ca.1950. Men and boys stand around a rugged baseball diamond in the center of the image in preparation for the next play. In the foreground, a few boys sit facing the field to the left of center. A blanket lies on the ground to the right of them while a cart that looks like a stroller sits to the right of the blanket. A tree with knobby bark provides shade to the boys in the right foreground. A street lined with cars and trees are visible in the background.
