Large group of people seated at tables outdoors. Overhead are paper lanterns. Group is at Japanese "community" in Arcadia which apparently was near Holly Avenue below Huntington, for a performance of the MIKADO. Man directly in front (center, no hat) is Ed Ryan, caretaker at Baldwin racetrack. On his lap is his daughter, whom Vesta Tucker Reeves and her sister did not like so they scratched over her photo with a pin. Girl seen over his left shoulder, is Vesta Tucker. The lady next to her is not identified. The girl with the long necklace sitting on the lap of the unidentified lady near Mr. Ryan, is Dextra Baldwin. Small boy on left on Japanese man's lap, is Baldwin M. Baldwin. The man, three figures away from camera in row Dextra is in, is her grandfather, Elias J."Lucky" Baldwin. Large man in light suit just to right of Mr. Ryan, is Mr. Johnson, who owned Johnson's Inn. Seen on extreme right, man with mustache and white hair, is Blas Cuellar, the wine maker.
