The sign, at one of the entrances to the park, read:

Jackson
Playground
San Francisco
Recreation & Park Dept

The park included one occupied baseball field. A game of softball was underway just as a change in sides began.

In the opposite corner of the park was another baseball field. This field was unoccupied. Notice the lights high over the backstop that would light the field for night games.

A large sign was attached to the cyclone fence separating the sidewalk from the field. That sign listed the park hours and the rules governing use of the park.

A batter was up at home base and waited for the pitch. The pitcher looked at the catcher to decide which pitch to throw.

A small set of bleachers were available for game supporters to sit. One team wore orange hats while the other team wore black.

A plaque was attached to the wall of a clubhouse behind the baseball field. It featured "Lou Spadia" of the "Forty Niners" (football team) as being instrumental in supplying "boys and girls" with "sports equipment."

Another plaque honored baseball player, "Anthony M. Lazzeri" who "developed his baseball skills at Jackson Playground in the Potrero District."

A fenced off area was available for young children to play on assorted playground equipment. Just outside the fence was a drinking fountain.

A basketball court was surrounded by a tall chain-link fence.

A serious game of tennis was underway in one of two tennis courts in Jackson Playground.
