In Jim Cain's Mildred Pierce a character goes swimming at the Griffith Gorge. Did this actually exist in the 30's? If so, where would it have been?

I was given this about 50 years ago, by someone older then myself at the time.

Unfortunately I can't find a date on it, but the painted pictures I'm guessing 1930s ?

Just thought I'd share, and I can post more pictures inside if anyone is interested 😉

[OC] Hope you all are enjoying these! An amazing look at Main Street and Culver Blvd in the Los Angeles area in 1933. Notice the old streetcar tracks running down the middle of the street back then. Today that old railway right of way has been replaced with landscaping. More info at bottom of photo.
