An extraordinary album of professional and vernacular nineteenth century photography, documenting a Southern tour to Florida and the Bahamas during the 1890's. A complete list of images and attributions can be found in our PDF file, downloadable here.

The oversize leather album has some wear and staining, but the contents of the album are immaculate. The 91 albumen photographs, some mounted several to a page, are in excellent condition. The subjects range from portraits of Bahamian men, women and children, the former slave quarters of a large plantation, tourists, hotels, landscapes, flora, architecture, and sailing craft; some of the amateur images are beautiful indeed.
