Title:
Beach at Shipyard Bay in Highgate Springs
|
|
|
- Date:
- 1910 - 1940
- Description:
- This black and white photograph looks up the shoreline at Shipyard Bay in Highgate Springs. A sliver of beach enters the foreground of the image and curves around into the background. The beach is covered in coarse sand, stones, and woody debris. The beach peters out into a rocky, thickly forested shoreline. A couple small gable-roof, wood-frame buildings are located along the back of the beach at the right side of the image. The peak of another roof rises above the trees that grow across the background. The thick foliage suggests a summer season. This photograph was taken by a photographer for the Eastern Illustrating & Publishing Co. and contributed to the Landscape Change Program by the Penobscot Marine Museum, located in Searsport, ME. Eastern Illustrating was a postcard company located in Belfast, ME that took thousands of photographs throughout New England and upstate New York between 1909 and the 1950s.
