Real Photo Postcard caption "No 163 Municipal Bathing Beach 'Alki'. West Seattle Wash"; lightly visible after this is "T Frasch 35" which is the signature line of OT Frasch, Seattle photographer of the time and his numbering system for the image.
Image shows many people in c1910-1915 fashion on the beach at low tide. Before the seawall was built. dock extends well out into the water in the background. Natatorium structure visible.
AZO stamp box on back has 2-up, 2-down triangles which dates this after 1910 up to 1930 but the fashion obviously pre-dates 1930; 1920 would be the later end. Ye Olde Curiosity Shop stamp on the back.
