mil.library.ucsb.edu Flight C_113, Frame 310 - Aug 1st 1927
This aerial is from August 1927 when Maier Park and Jack Doyle's Vernon Arena were out of use. The intersection of 38th St and Santa Fe Ave is upper right. The Arena and tavern were adjacent to this intersection and likely the SW corner to be right by the ballpark - can't make out where precisely though.

Per a July 22, 1927, news-wire report: "Jack Doyle's old Vernon arena, scene of many Southern California's boxing matches during the four-round days, was virtually destroyed by fire early this morning. A nearby baseball park where the blaze is believed to have originated, was partially destroyed. The loss was estimated at $100,000."
