Swapmeet Finds #1317

September 1961. Lydia posing with a big old sign for "Avenue of the Giants". I think this sign is long gone, as I can't seem to find any pictures of it online. Here's what avenueofthegiants.net has to say about this area:

"This world-famous scenic drive is a 31-mile portion of old Highway 101, which parallels Freeway 101 with its 51,222 acres of redwood groves. It is by far the most outstanding display of these giant trees in the entire 500 mile redwood belt and is accessible to all with convenient services provided along the way. The Avenue of the Giants is surrounded by Humboldt Redwoods State Park which has the largest remaining stand of virgin redwoods in the world."
