A day at the beach maybe?

 
This is a colorized photograph (by me) that was titled "Children's Delight," depicting a crowded beach scene in Atlantic City, New Jersey, circa 1905.
It has some historical context in that the photo captures the era's beach fashion, where people typically wore heavy, dark-colored clothing and swimwear that provided extensive coverage.
 In the background, the iconic Young's Pier is visible, which was a popular attraction during Atlantic City's early tourism boom.
The image is actually a composite of three glass negatives produced by the Detroit Publishing Company. Have a great day...

Order yours today and be ready for the Fourth of July.
