Images of Florida and Cuba, 1910
Nothing is known about the creator of this photo album (which is
probably incomplete). It seems likely that the photos represent a trip through Florida
and over to Cuba by steamer, as they focus on places and attractions that were popular in such tours. Subjects include
steamboats, stern-wheelers, hotels and attractions (mostly between Jacksonville and Miami), and views of
the Oklawaha and Caloosahatchee rivers, Tampa, Fort Myers, Key West, Havana, and Matanzas, Cuba. All the photographs date to 1910.
Identifications are taken directly from album captions.
