Description
The tri-fold pamphlet encourages patrons to "swim in the world's largest warm salt water plunge." Swimming lessons and beauty parlor services are also advertised as additional offerings at the bath house. Information about hours of operation, rates, and a contact for special party inquiries is also included. This pamphlet varies from the other in the collection in slight format differences: main advertisement fits on the first two inner panels, swimming lessons advertisement is located above a picture of beach-goers enjoying Redondo Beach on the third inner panel, 'conveniences for women bathers' also has its own panel, and the back panel (when folded) displays the bath house schedule (May 1 to October 1), rates and contact information under a picture of two women and a girl holding a surfboard.
