Visual Materials
A suede-covered photograph album dating from approximately 1904 containing 48 mounted photographs of Santa Cruz and environs by local photographer Charles L. Aydelotte. Subjects include beachgoers at Santa Cruz beach and views of boardwalk attractions such as the first "Neptune's Casino" (built in 1904 and destroyed by fire in 1906) and the "Electric Pleasure Pier." Other subjects include the "Wave Motor," a motor-driven water tank structure that stored salt water used to wet down dirt roads; the Big Tree Grove of redwoods; a bird's-eye-view of the town; and photographs of crashing ocean waves that appear to take on the form of human faces, with titles such as "Maid of the Mist" and "The Old Man of the Sea." Most photographs have brief captions identifying the subject and location.
