Description
Photograph of the Orange County Armistice Day celebration in Huntington Beach, November 11, 1924. A paved street lined with two-story buildings is at center. Many early-model automobiles are parked along the sides, and hundreds of pedestrians can be seen along the sidewalks. Three American flags are hung from a wire over the street, while more flags can be seen along the road. A large sign over the street in the background reads "Orange County Armistice Day Celebration November 11". Other legible signs include, from left to right: "Obarr's Drugs Soda", "Daley's", "Huntington Cleaners Dryers", "The Palace Billiards", "Hotel", "Buffet", "Trust and Savings Bank", "Bank Hotel", "Furnished R[ooms]", "Home State Bank", "Billiards", "Paint", "Home Dining Room", and "Drug".
