1895réf. 3633601895. Five views of Lake Worth Beach and Palm Beach in 1895. The images are: 1 Ferry at Lake Worth with the Royal Poinciana Hotel in the distance. Captioned in the negative "L.W.B. 9.14.95"; 2 Lake Worth with the Royal Poinciana Hotel in the distance. Captioned in the negative "L.W.B. 9.24.95"; 3 View of Lake Worth with a pier in the foreground possibly taken from a boat. Captioned in the negative "L.W.B. 10.9.95"; 4 Sail boat in front of the Royal Poinciana captioned in the negative "Lake Worth" two versions with different exposure times 5 View of the Palm Beach Inn later renamed The Breakers under construction with the Royal Poinciana in the background not dated but the hotel opened in December 1895. The negatives these views were printed from are of somewhat unusual size measuring roughly 4-3/4 by 7-3/4 inches. All but one view have a horizontal orientation. Given that this size does not seem to conform to the standard halfplate negative usually 5-1/2 to 6-1/2 inches in the long direction one might speculate that the photographer made their own camera. The photographs are handcut with somewhat uneven edges and of varying finished sizes all roughly 5 by 8 inches. They are generally very good or better with some toning and spotting. Uncommon subject matter. unknown

It served in all theaters of the Civil War in the service of the Union Army and Navy pioneered acoustic exploration in the wake of the sinking of the Titanic and during WWI it worked to detect enemy submarines. In addition this agency worked to survey and produce detailed maps and renderings of the U.S. coast. These nautical survey maps commonly referred to as "T-sheets" provide fascinating insights into the history of the United States coastline which has and will continue to shift. These maps are the most important data source for understanding the physical and ecological characteristics of the U.S. shoreline. The present map of the Florida coastline shows part of the Overseas Railroad prior to its partial destruction and abandonment after a Hurricane in 1935. This map is a highly detailed and accurate sea chart of the Keys region and an important historical view of a developing Florida.
