Tiles in Avalon - Bison

by RTK Studio's - 1999

Here is another tile mural on the Casino Way walkway.  Also inspired by postcards from the 1920's & '30's, it depicts the bison that still roam the interior of Catalina Island.  This is one of my favorites.

For more details about these tiles see my earlier post Catalina Tiles.

Tiles in Avalon - Girl Riding Fish

After my last post, I started noticing how many tiles there actually are in town and all over Catalina Island for that matter and I started taking pictures.  This one is on Front Street (Crescent Ave) on the way out to the Cabrillo Mole, where the boats come in.  The plaque below the tile reads:

            "Ethel Rosin Irmas - Born June 2, 1895 - Avalon, Santa Catalina Island - This Park Commemorates      
              the 100th Year of Our Mother's Birth - Richard Irmas - Sydney Irmas - Jon Irmas Lappen".

I assume it was created and dedicated in 1995.
