Description
Photograph of a grandstand and traffic policeman in the foreground, San Salvador, El Salvador, 1926. In the foreground at center, a traffic policeman is visible standing atop a rectangular stool. The policeman can be seen wearing a jacket and round hat with a wide brim. To the right, another individual can be seen walking to the right wearing similar clothing. Behind the men on the opposite side of the road, a set of stairs can be seen leading to a small, round structure. The top of the structure curves out slightly, and several pillars can be seen near its base. Small lampposts can be seen near the structure along the stairs, and several individuals are also visible to the left. Behind the cylindrical structure, several trees can be seen on both the left and right.
