Capewell Glass Negative Collection

Nice! I like the way you put the text on the boat. The shoes on his brother are interesting. People sure over dressed back then.

Guy:

As I noted on Willceau’s blog concerning this photograph, the brother is wearing bathing shoes, which you would put on to swim in the ocean.

Best regards,
Jerseyman

I did not scroll down that far to see your post. However, it does confirm to me they are overdressed. Why wear the shoes to enter the water and also wear the clothes they have on? Bathing suit(s) underneath???

As the other person mentioned on your site, this is the best one yet. Nice historical research and photo.

Weird Structure

Can you use Photoshop to bring out the detail inside the hut? I do see some detail in there.

Let me chase down my original shot of the negative, and I'll see what I can do. If I come up with something, I'll include it in next week's post.

I don't think there is anything in there.

The weird structure appears to me, to be a crudely built spring house.

I'm not sure if any of them are still standing. I'm waiting for some of the old-timers on the Westville page at Facebook to chime in.

The house I grew up in and the one next to it on Broadway are definitely gone. There's a Wawa there now.

The firemen get an UPGRADE!
