Description

3 3/16"h x 5 1/2"w photo of Saint Clement's/Blackistone Island and the Blackistone Lighthouse. The photographer was on a boat well away from the island on a very calm day. There appears to be riprap on the shore. The building is a two and a half story house with the light on the roof peak. There appears to be an inside end chimney on the left and an outside end chimney on the right. There were five windows on the second floor and four windows and a central door on the first floor. There was a porch the entire length of the building with a shed roof. There was an outbuilding on the right, but it was obscured by small trees. It was a very gray day. ********************************** Text on verso: in black stamp ink "439" in pencil "Blackistone (St. Clements) Island and the lighthouse on the Potomac River at the mouth of St. Clement's Bay About 1946 11072"
