1994.80.114aDescription
Exterior photograph of the entrance of Manzanar showing the two sentry posts, a building in the administration area on the left, and Mt. Williamson and the Sierra in the background. Photo was taken between April 1947 and 1952. The site was returned to Los Angeles DWP after the removal of the barracks in 1947. Many of the administration buildings remained as part of the FPHA housing project until those buildings were also removed in 1952.
Written along top edge of photo is "Manzanar" and along bottom edge is "Carol walking toward sentry house." Photo was likely taken by Lou Frizzell.Photograph Details
