  1. From the phone number on the sign, I'd say that this photo was taken in the 1950's.

    1. Possibly early 60s. Letter-designated exchanges were gradually phased out starting in about 1961-63. They were indeed much more common in the 50s and the sign doesn’t look new, anyway.

  2. Boy, after you lugged one of those behemoths to the shore, it was time for several beers and a four hour tanning session before you had to lug it back.

  4. Of course Santa Barbara always had the natural tar seepage which made beach time there a mess unless you brought some solvent. Graduated there 1972 and, why yes, I did get to see the BoA burn

  5. That’s Renny Yater. Still shaping boards in SB and a legend of our sport.
