I've got Don the Beachcomber history on the brain this week. I found this info regarding the location of Rockford's trailer location on Wikpedia In early episodes in the shows first season, the trailer is located in a crowded parking lot alongside the highway and near the ocean; for the rest of the series, the trailer is at Paradise Cove (address 29 Cove Road), adjacent to a pier and a restaurant. So it looks like the episode the photo was taken from was the from the first year in 1974, well before Don the Beachcomber moved in. Damn. DC
