File:Benjamin Fuller in Los Angeles, 1933.jpg

English: Sir Benjamin Fuller poses while standing aboard the S.S. Monterey upon his arrival to Los Angeles. He stands at center and leans back slightly against the ship's rail. He wears a pinstriped suit and holds his hat in his left hand as he looks directly to the camera. Immediately behind him, a lifebuoy is affixed to the railing; it reads, "[...]MONTE[...]." Beyond the railing and in the background, a mast stands in the near distance at left, a lifeboat hangs at center and the ocean sprawls into the distance at right.
