12114. (photo) Lighthouse at Pemaquid Point, Maine by Frank E Claes c.1950’s. An old photograph from the collection of Frank E Claes (1910-2000) of Camden Maine. This wonderful photo of “Pemaquid Point Lighthouse” was taken in the mid 20th Century. Photographer Frank E. Claes was formerly of Camden, Me,, but by the 1980’s resided in Orland, Me. Claes, a very accomplished photographer, had opened a portrait studio in Camden in 1950. He also copied and made negatives for people, as well as for Historical Societies, Museums, and libraries. He was from the old school, keeping a copy of the negatives of the photos, so that people went back to him for copies. He specialized in reproducing copies of Maritime history, including photos of many ships. He said that he held the largest collection of Maritime negatives of anyone in the state. His photos have been featured in museums and in books throughout New England. Photo measures 8” x 10” and shows great detail of the stone light tower with the ocean beyond. Clear, close view. (VG+). $32.
