Mostly Los Angeles County, 1919. Album. Very good. This 72-page 9" x 8" album contains approximately 200 photographs ranging in size from 3" x 2" to 5" x 7". The cover of the suede album features a photograph of a small sailboat. The glue-mounted photos are in nice shape; a few have tape on a corner or two. There is light wear to the cover. A few photos have be lost or removed.

The photographs in this album are all related to well-to-do an extended family apparently living in Los Angeles County and probably affiliated with the Long Beach shipbuilding industry. Images include:

12 shipyard, ship construction, and launching photos (the Craig Ship Building Company at Long Beach, the Long Beach Ship Company, and possibly the Southwestern Ship Building Company on Terminal Island),

7 Naval base and warship photos from San Pedro, Long Beach, or both,

7 photos of what looks like the Santa Fe Railyard at Long Beach,

6 Rose Parade photos (Long Beach float, Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce Float, etc.),

6 photos of The Pike at Long Beach (Jack Rabbit Coaster, Bath House, Goat Cart, etc.),

5 photos of San Juan Capistrano including the Junípero Sera statue with the old large cross,

2 photos of an apple orchards and souvenir stand probably at Apple Valley,

2 photos of a military parade including one with a mock-up tank,

A number of street city and town scenes, some with street cars, and Many family photos including automobiles, camping on the beach, children, meals, bicycles, a gramophone, pets, a house with snow, etc.

All in all, a very nice visual record of life in Los Angeles County during World War One.
