Original 1947 AP Wire Photo dated September 18 showing a boat rescuing trailer residents in Miami, Florida, after they were marooned by high water accompanying a tropical hurricane. The flooded trailer area and makeshift boat evacuation give the image strong visual interest as a period disaster photograph. The caption is separate from the photograph, and both are mounted on the same piece of black archival paper. Measures approximately 8⅜ x 7¼ inches. From the archive of a Pittsburgh-area newspaper.
