Largos tuna catch, Santa Barbara, California
Photographic paper: Kodak Artura
This Real Photo Post Card has gold embossed printing that gives the title at the bottom, and the poundage of each fish hanging. Two men stand on the left, in uniform. The one on the right is wearing denims and a floppy hat and long-sleeved shirt, behind a pelican. The weight of the fish is given as, from left to right, 125 lb, 130 lb, and 135 lb. Handwritten in cursive using black ink is a message beside the third fish (on the right next to the man with the floppy hat): "This is the one Little Sister caught." The print developed on this photographic paper made from 1911-1921 is sepia in tone. The untraveled back is divided.
