About this postcard

Looking across San Pedro Harbor, a large steamship sits at left while a small launch moves through the water in the center. The foreground is the deck of a tug or workboat, with wharves and low buildings along the shore. San Pedro was Los Angeles's harbor and a busy point for commercial shipping, fishing, and coastal traffic in the early 1900s.
