1955 - 1960

Overview

Black and White photograph depicting a main group of 14 teenagers, only two of whom are female. Five standing in the back row, one central, and seven sitting in the front row, and one person prostrate at the front. The lad in the middle at the front holds a ball, possibly for beach volleyball. Some wear hats, all in bathing costumes. Seen in the periphery are other beachgoers watching as the photograph is taken. There appears to be a volleyball net on the right hand side of the image. In the background there is a tall electrical pole with possibly two powerful lights.
