This photo was taken by Fred Emmert, who tells us that in 1953, the Boy Scouts of America held their National Jamboree on part of the site that is today Fashion Island, the area seen in the image within the circular Newport Center Drive.
Emmert recently uncovered a 1969 photo from the same angle, which he intends to include with other older OC aerial photographs in an upcoming book to be called "Oh, See!", a 50-year visual history of Orange County. It should be out by the end of the year.
Emmert's aerial photography business, Air Views, is located in Santa Ana and can be found on the Internet at www.airviews.com.
