Caption: "Trinity Church, Wall Street. Aug. 29, 1934. New York City." The 281-foot-high steeple of Trinity Church spears the sky between two tall buildings on New York City's Wall Street in this photograph. The church, dedicated in 1846, was the third church built at the site. Designed by Richard Upjohn when the second Trinity Church had to be replaced due to structural issues, the present church is one of the earliest examples of Gothic Revival or Neo-Gothic architecture in the nation. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976.

Caption: "Nudist Colony - San Diego Expo.," c. 1935. The Zoro Garden Nudist Colony, named for the Persian mystic, Zoroaster, was an unusual and controversial attraction that featured partially nude men and women performing as nudists. Exposition visitors were charged twenty-five cents to watch the "nudists" perform ceremonies and other activities. Today, the sunken Zoro Garden in Balboa Park is a butterfly garden.
