View toward lighthouse building from Palisades cliffs above Will Rogers Beach, Los Angeles, 1930s

One of a series of photographs labeled 2890 P 1-5. All were shot from the same cliff toward the lighthouse building. Images labeled “2890 P 1-3” look to be from the 1930s. The building displays minimal signage and 1930s era automobiles are in view. Images labeled “2890 P 4-5” include 1940s era cars, while the building itself has accumulated more signage and is most similar to an additional photograph (No. 2902) of Caroline Bartlett taken at the same location, dated 1946.
