ISLE OF WIGHT PHOTO ALBUM, 23 BLACK & WHITE IMAGES, ca.1910

Small blue-green cloth album, 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 in., some old staining and fading to edges of front cover, "Kodak" stamped in black on front board. Stiff card album pages, with cut out frames, one 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 in. photo per page (one frame empty). The images show cottages, the shoreline, men repairing netting, a day's catch? (perhaps a dolphin?) in three photos, photos of a small sailboat (3), a beached boat (3), two women on a park bench, and an image of the "Royal Sandrock" Hotel, with its sign above the front door. The hotel, on the Isle of Wight, was originally built in the late 18th century and had many famous visitors over the years including Queen Victoria, Rudyard Kipling, and Marconi.
