Description

In his History Project, Inc. oral history, Bruce Collins told interviewer Tony Prohaska that he piloted the steamer Shinnecock out of Amagansett for Jack Edwards from 1954 until 1960. That date is used to estimate the date for these images. In other images, Bruce Collins explained that many of the Bunker Boats from Promised Land would head south for winter repairs along the Chesapeake, often continuing to fish at points south. Many of the employees of Promised Land also came from areas along the Chesapeake, like Tangier Island. These pictures are from a trip to Tangier Island. Bruce Collins captioned this image: "Former Crab Shedding Pens." Other similar images are identified as "Tangier Island Harbor."
