The Library of Congress title is “Whiskey cases on beach, Bimini, Bahamas.” The record describes hundreds of cases stacked on a beach with palm trees behind them, and says the place is “possibly Bimini, Bahamas” and the date “probably during prohibition.” Both are the cataloger’s inferences; the title and scan were supplied by the donor.
The photograph is in the Albert M. Price Panoramic Photograph Collection, dated by the Library between 1914 and 1929. The record does not say who owned the whiskey or where it was bound. The copy stored here is the Library of Congress service JPEG.
