Photograph of the parking lot at Los Angeles International Airport, ca.1974. A line of tall eight-headed lamps stand in the foreground, above row upon row of automobiles in a series of parking lots outside the airport. In the background to the left, a large building appears behind several palm trees. More palms dot the parking lot, and a few stand before another structure in the distant right.
