29177. (negative set) Portland Head Lighthouse with Keeper c.1940. Set of clear close negatives captures nicely details of the light and fog signals at Portland Head Light Station in Maine , along with I believe the Principal Keeper Frank. O. Hilt (1929-1944) [or Keeper Robert Thayer Sterling, (assistant 1928-1944, principal keeper 1944-1946)]. There are 11 negatives in the set which include Keeper Hilt, the fog bell, unusual fog signal horns, the light tower and more. Rare, large images measures 4” x 5”. and are clear and close. Would provide a great clear prints. (VG+). $168.
