Sunset behind Helmet Rock. "W.E. Balcom Supervisor" advertising on rock. Balcom had been appointed to the Board of Supervisors in June 1909 ran for reelection in but did not survive the August primary. Why advertise on this remote rock? The Cliff line streetcar running around Lands End had good view of it.
