2. The Wreck Bay pier in 1938
- Description:
- This image was taken during the 1938 visit by the "Valero III" of the Allen Hancock Scientific Expedition. "Wreck Bay is served by an old wooden pier surmounted by a narrow gauge steam railway in the heyday of Rancho El Progreso. Wooden pilings and rough hewn planks [Matazarno] used in its construction are remarkable for their hardines and seeming imperviousness to the ravages of time (Meredith 1939:203)".
