Description

Photograph of an exterior view of the Ocean Park Bath House in Santa Monica, ca.1920. The bath house is at center and is a large Moorish-style building. At the center of the building is an elaborate entry way consisting of a large domed tower surrounded by four tall spires. Smaller domed towers occupy the corners of the buildings. Awnings project from the bottom story of the building, and rows of round windows occupy the second and third stories. There is a sandy beach in the foreground and many people are on it, most under the shade of large umbrellas. A man watches the scene below from a stone bridge in the foreground at left.; Legible signs include, from left to right, "Novelty Shop Father's Supplies Ice Cream", "Pineapple Snow", "Bath House", "Laundry", "California", "Learn to Swim Ocean Park School of Swimming and Diving", "Do you Swim? George Watkins guarantees to teach you or money refunded", "Hot Dogs", "Imperial Ice Cream", "Bathers Welcome", "Lunch Room", "Soft", "Soda Fountain", "Red Hots Pop Corn Soda", "Snow Lollypops", and "Oriental Art [?] At Public".
