Description
Photograph of a view of sailboats on Long Beach's Alamitos Bay, 1960. Twelve small vessels can be seen on the water. All have one mast and most have a single sail. A small group of people can be seen swimming in the bay at left, while five people watch the boats from the shore in the foreground. In the background, a large two-story building can be seen on the edge of the bay. Several large trees can be seen, including many palm trees in the background at right.
