Atlantic City - The Beach


The beach is a popular place for the camera. There are lots of photographs of people at the beach.

Due to recent events on the east coast of the US, I started wondering if there were any pictures of the beach front at Atlantic City in the LOST GALLERY archives. I was surprised to find several. There are some where the location is identified on the photograph itself. Then there are several that MIGHT have been taken at the famous Atlantic City beach, but they are unidentified.

Can you identify any of them?

I have numbered these. If you recognize any of the locations, just leave a comment including the number of the photograph that you can identify. Thanks!

Let's start with the ones from the LOST GALLERY collection that have been identified in some way as being located at the Atlantic City Beach.

THE KIDS Lesson one.
It is always a mystery how a photograph of any of these precious children could end up lost or abandoned. Here are a few. You will probably say "Ooh..." at least once.
