Red Hand
Alcatraz, San Francisco, California, 2007


I'm not sure why this red hand is painted above the door in the visitors entrance. Perhaps it is from the Indian occupation of the island.

Wonderful discovery, Tim. I agree that this is probably grafitti from the Indian occupation of the Alcatraz.
