Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of children standing with their dogs along a street curb during the "mutt show" in North Hollywood. Some appear to be in costume, as with the young girl wearing a bathing suit with Mary Jane shoes and socks, and a young man in black face wearing overalls and a kerchief on his head. The young girl seen here at center (wearing a bathing suit) is Sue Heckler, who was featured in a different photograph taken on the same occasion. The photo appears with the article, "Ordinary Mutts Vie for Honors," Los Angeles Times, 1 Aug. 1935: A5. Handwritten on negative: Mutt show in N. Hollywood. 8-3-35 Text from negative sleeve: 1736. Mutt show in N. Hollywood. 8-3-35. [Stamped:] Aug 22 1935.
