Pierpoint Landing

An item (above) was emailed to me today by Lou Koza, who currently runs The Adventures Continue website on the Adventures of Superman television show starring George Reeves.

It is a Long Beach Press-Telegram news article on a 1953 location shoot of "The Golden Vulture" episode. The cast and crew were at Pierpoint Landing in Long Beach for the shoot. This jogged a memory for me.

Back in the 1960s, my grandfather used to take us fishing on his boat and we'd occasionally launch from Pierpoint Landing. We'd also launch from Redondo Beach or go up to Morro Bay.

My grandfather was also a fan of the Adventures of Superman in the years preceding his passing in February 1966. He watched it on KTTV-TV Channel 11 in Los Angeles.

Thanks to Lou Koza for this little stroll down Memory Lane!
