Coloured photographs. The collection was made in connection with a proposed hotel development and the first fifty-two prints show scenes on the Ffryes Point Estate, on the west coast, about seven and a half miles from St. John's and twelve from the airport, where the hotel was to be built. The next thirty-one are of St. John's and the last seven of English Harbour. A map of Antigua has been inserted.
