View of a man in a wagon, passing under a gate with a sign that reads "Malibu Rancho - Trespassers Strictly Prohibited." The land (present day Malibu, California) at this time was owned by Frederick and May Knight Rindge. Title transcribed from item. Date range approximated by cataloger based on the year that film negatives came into use and the latest known dates indicated for other Hazard images in the Huntington's collection. Note: this is a print - the original negative is not in this collection. This image was published in Young, Betty Lou. "Pacific Palisades: Where the Mountains Meet the Sea," p. 44 (Casa Vieja Press, 2001) with the caption: "The famous Malibu gate that carried a warning to visitors, 'Malibu Rancho - Trespassers Strictly Prohibited,' thereby discouraging travel north along the coast from Pacific Palisades."
