I always associate Playa Del Ray with Anissa Jones who played Buffy Davis on Family Affair. Here are some links.
The overdose death of Anissa Jones. A tour of Playa Del Ray. |
Just out of curiosity, on the previous page, what in the heck are all those people at the West Port Beach Club looking at?!? They seem to be fixated on something going on outside the frame...:???:

As best I can tell, it is "a pool show." (Before TV and computer generated graphics, folks were content to stare at pools. :koko: If you were thinking "Goat Gland Extravaganza", that was rarely advertised, Doctor supervised and performed by candle light on Catalina - or Monkey Island! :boogy: Photographer, Herman Schultheis, was evidently attracted to many things, architectural. ;) ) Quote:

John Wayne - owned a cottage on the Beach In Laguna Beach Cali- - it had a funicular
from the roadside upper house going down to the beachside cottage- The elevator - was working the day I visited the location in 1974. But I have not been able to find anymore about John Wayne's Laguna Beach residence ? The set up was very similar to this one posted earlier ...(Santa Barbara) http://catalog.library.ca.gov/exlibr...B5Y88KIFEG.jpg |
