This week's photo is a photo from the same collection as last week's
photo. Another very unique photo taken (according to Kibby
Bouche's narration about the photo) is what they called the Community
Building in Balboa. According to Kibby, he actually was in this
building a few times. It was located towards the end of Carr St. across
from the Balboa School and entrance to Morgan Ave. He said that
this building was either an old house or office building converted into
this community building. He said that part of this building had
rooms for rent were people lived. After converting the building,
there were performances by bands, theater plays, and a great place for
meetings. In this photo is shows a large group of women in their
finest clothes and very fancy hats. There are all kinds of
tropical plants and shrubs decorating the walls and windows. This
group could have been the Balboa Women's Club with all the big-shots
wives attending.
What
a great moment in history.
