Description

Photograph of a picnic ground with tables and campfire sites, ca.1930. A campfire, made out of large stones, is located in the center. To the right, three picnic tables are seen at almost equidistant positions, one behind the other. The first table in the left foreground is partially visible, another table is seen behind a tree with double stems, and a third table sits in the far left background. A trash can is seen slightly to the right in the foreground. All the objects sit on a grassy lawn surrounded by trees and vegetation. There are two signs that are seen on the tree in the left that read: "NO [...] IN [...]" and "[?]".
