Five of the twenty-six Belgian draft horses being auctioned off by Los Angeles County at Los Angeles's Union Stock Yards. L.A. County's Board of Supervisors had assessed that the draft horses, though they had won many prizes and obtained national recognition, were too expensive to continue to care for. The twenty-six horses netted $11,367.50 at auction.

This photograph is very similar to another one of Dean S. Bedilion that appeared in "Effects of Former Film Couple Spur Bids at Sale," Los Angeles Times, 09 Aug 1935: A1. In the newspaper photograph Bedilion holds dishes instead of a chair.
From front to back, S. F. "Nick" Carter and J. V. Anderson, police officers, pose with unclaimed items up for auction at the semi-annual police auction. S. F. Carter sits in a wheelchair, off-center to the left. He plays a guitar and appears to sing. Directly behind him, J. V. Carter smiles to camera while holding onto a camera. Beside the officers, a large table enters frame at right and extends back towards center. It is cluttered with unclaimed property. Typewriters, vacuum cleaners, shoes, cameras, clocks and tennis rackets are some of the items that sit atop the table. Purses and a pair of ice skates hang above the table at right. Luggage sits in a stack beneath the table.
