Today's image of Huntington Beach (probably around 1950) comes from an online slide show about California oil from the Washington Post..

I know it's a bit last-minute, but tonight is the election meeting for the Huntington Beach Historical Society. The meeting will begin at 7pm in the "barn" behind the Newland House Museum, 19820 Beach Blvd.
