Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of Sheriff Eugene Biscailuz standing on a stage and speaking at the Southern Pacific Railroad employee picnic at Sycamore Grove Park. He is viewed from the side and with a worm's-eye perspective. The front of the stage is covered in patriotic decor and stretches across the bottom edge on an angle. Eugene Biscailuz stands at center near the front edge of the stage and faces towards the left. He stands at the microphone and looks down towards the camera. The rest of the stage stretches behind him to the right. Chairs and benches line the back of the stage. A few men sit on stage and look towards Sheriff Biscailuz. Above the stage, an awning extends over the front of the stage and a sign stretches above it. The sign reads, "SOUTHERN PAC[...]." Trees stand in the background at left. Text from negative sleeve: 2125. Sycamore Grove, Los Angeles, Calif. S.P.R.R. picnic. June 17, 1945. Two pictures of Sheriff Eugene Biscailuz
