Description

Photograph of a drawing depicting an aerial view of a city (Long Beach?), [s.d.]. A large auditorium with arched windows and a semi-circle at its left end stands at center with a line of trees fencing it in from the ocean around it. A bridge lined in palm trees curves from the land on the right, around the front end of the auditorium, and back to land further down the beach. A second protruding section of land is home to a roller coaster further down. Large buildings riddled with hundreds of tiny windows crowd the inland.
