Busy street "Panama, 1926"

Item

Title
Busy street "Panama, 1926"
Photographer
Likely, Mark Jefferson
Description
Photograph of a car line street taken in Panama in 1926. Palm trees can be seen planted in front of the four story restaurant on the opposite side of the street. The building is characterized by rectangular windows on all of the floors, a mansard style roof with several roof, and wall dormers. The large clock tower building has a curved front with several stories of windows and pillars supporting a cornice on the first floor. A skyscraper stands behind the clock tower and has a heavy base and a denticulated cornice at the top. Skyscrapers line the rest of the street in the background. Jefferson would often use the same negative to create a lantern slide as well as a mounted stereographic card. When possible we have indicated if it is a repeat image, however this is not always the case. As such, there may be a corresponding digitized glass lantern slide, and a mounted stereographic card associated with this stereographic negative within the Mark Jefferson Collection.
