Item description from seller

Oblong small octavo measuring 7.5" x 5.5". String-tied brown suede album with "snapshots Alton, N.H." and a hand painted rose on the cover. Contains 53 sepia toned or black and white gelatin silver photographs measuring between 1" x 1" and 4" x 5" with captions. Near fine album with near fine photographs. A photo album kept by a New Hampshire couple while traveling to vacation spots along the East Coast in 1930. The beginning part of the album shows the couple in Florida posed by orange trees in Stuart, Florida which they drove to from West Palm Beach. Other photos show the couple at Miami Beach standing by palms and seated in the sand. They also photographed banana trees, Palm Beach's city hall, and King Mountain. Other images show the couple at Mount Vernon and New Haven, Connecticut after coming home from Florida. The next year in 1931 they returned to Florida visiting Bok Tower and Lake Wales. Other photos from this trip include Silver Springs Ocala, Florida and one photo of African-American children with the caption, "selling cotton on the road" from North Carolina. Flamingos, bathers, and fishing photographs are also seen here. One photo reads "the day Bill got the sunburn." Towards the end of the album they photographed the Good Year blimp flying over Miami Beach. A nice collection of travel photographs from 1930 and 1931 with an emphasis on Florida.…
