3090. (photo) U.S. Life-Saving Station, Cold Spring, New Jersey. H.A.B.S. photo. 8” x 12”. The Historic American Building Survey (HABS) and the Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) collections are dedicated to preserving America’s architectural history by gathering a diverse range of historic photographs and architectural designs of buildings throughout the country. This clear, close photo provides great detail of the Bibb #2-Type station built in 1890-91 one half mile east of Cape May city. Note the unusual two-tone shingles on the facing gable end, and the Keeper with his wife enjoying the summer weather on the porch. Just to the right of the corner board can be seen the eave of the original 1855-Type station. Exceptionally clear and close view, professional digital print. (F-). $38.
