Description	Photograph of close-up of hull of a ship against a dock, Los Angeles Harbor, November 1934. In the extreme foreground at center, a wooden dock can be seen extending from left to right. Beside the dock at right, the hull and rudder of a large ship is visible. Small portholes are visible along the side of the ship. Along the top of the ship, a long metal railing is visible. Two ropes connect to the ship and extend off to the left. Two men are visible on the deck of the ship. A small sign along the railing reads: "Keep Clear of Propellers".
