19331962Long Beach Ca 1933. Very good plus. Forty silver gelatin photographs. Twenty-six mounted on leaves with typed captions the remainder loose but captioned in negative. Images 3.5 x 5.75 inches and 3.5 x 4.5 inches. Images crisp and clean mounting leaves a bit rumpled with light wear. Small collection of images documenting the Long Beach Earthquake of May 10 1933. The images mounted to sheets are numbered and captioned in typescript with the heading "Earthquake Damage - Long Beach and Vicinity. March 14 1933". They provide a visual survey of the damage to major sites around Los Angeles and Compton such as the Masonic Temple the Dominguez Sub-station the Security First National Bank in Compton buildings along East Compton Boulevard and several of the local schools. The loose photos all show damage in Long Beach itself including the Seaside Hospital the Catholic Church the Imperial Theatre schools and an image captioned "Feeding refugees at Lincoln Park - Long Beach Cal."<br/><br/>The Long Beach Earthquake occurred just before 6 o'clock in the morning and was a magnitude 6.4 killing more than 100 people. The epicenter was offshore south of Los Angeles with much of the damage limited to Long Beach but also spreading north into southern L.A. It is notable that many of the images here document school buildings as more than 200 schools were damaged in the event. This highlighted a need for earthquake-proof construction in school buildings where the death toll would have been much higher had the earthquake struck during school hours and the legislature passed the Field Act on April 10th as a result. An altogether interesting set of images. unknown books

Crawford and the Schaffers apparently met and spent time together at Yama Farms. The poem consists of two octaves and begins "To a pair of Happy Lovers / Whom I met at Yama Farms / Who are dead in love with Lovers / Of Old Mother Nature's charms . . .
