Scope and Contents

255 x 200 mm. A yachting scene. The typescript caption attached to the reverse of the print continues: 'The waters of George Town harbour, Exuma, are so clear that these sloops competing in the Fourth Annual Out Island Regatta seem almost to be suspended in air. That's Stocking Island in the background, which shelters the harbour and makes it one of the best in the Bahamas. Dozens of visiting yachtsmen converged on George Town for the regatta April 11-13. -30-'. The caption is from the Bahamas News Bureau, who have stamped the reverse of the print with the reference: '12812', and continues: 'Direction of: Robinson-Hannagan Associates', giving their full postal address and telephone number.
