This is an original 1940 color print of Larry Sweeney teaching diving at the Hotel Del Monte in Monterey, California. The hotel had the Pebble Beach golf course nearby where the guests could be entertained. The hotel also cared for the Cypress and Monterey Peninsula golf courses, but they were both privatized and were only open to an elite group of people.
