EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1910 and 1920, showcases the scenic Harbor entrance and lights of Buffalo, New York. The image, featuring the "Juniata" on a departing steamboat, is a testament to the rich maritime history of Buffalo and its connection to Lake Erie. Buffalo, located in Erie County, New York State, United States, was an essential hub for transportation and commerce during the early 20th century. The city's harbor was a gateway to the Great Lakes, facilitating the movement of passengers and goods between the United States and Central America. The photo, taken from a dock or shoreline vantage point, highlights the intricate details of the harbor's infrastructure, including the lighthouse that guided sailors safely to shore. The "Juniata," a passenger steamer belonging to the Detroit Publishing Company, is depicted as it prepares to depart, leaving a trail of white wake behind. The Detroit Publishing Company, founded in 1895, was a significant publisher of postcards, photographic prints, and other visual materials. Their images, like this one, captured the essence of America's burgeoning tourism industry and documented the country's evolving landscape. This dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in image, now part of the Library of Congress collection, is a valuable piece of heritage art that transports us back in time. It offers a glimpse into Buffalo's past, showcasing the city's unique character and the role it played in the broader context of American history.
