Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. H. H. West's daughters, Frances and Elizabeth, and their cousin, Wilfrid Cline, on a boat. Elizabeth and Wilfrid are fishing. Frances sits back with her hand on her sister's shoulder. Elizabeth wears a hat. Wilfrid wears a tie. 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.
