Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Man, woman, and two children on a boat. The man wears a hat and is bending forward. The woman is looking away from the camera. Based on the other images in this sleeve, and close examination of the photo, the people on the boat do not appear to be West's family. A ship and the shore are in the distance. Text from negative sleeve: 1203. San Pedro, California, about 1910. 1. The boat with man in bow, two children and lady, looks like my father, George M. West, with Frances and Elizabeth West and Mrs Mary A West, but I cannot recall taking father on a fishing trip to the breakwater. 2. 3. 4. Three pictures of Frances West, without a hat, Elizabeth West, with hat, and Wilfrid Cline Jr fishing from a boat at the breakwater, and it looks like it was taken same day as No. 1 film. But father was not in this boat. Maybe I got the boat owner to take the children out so I could photograph them. 4 films.
