Scope and content
This collection documents the photography shot by Bob Edelson in his retirement from 1985 and onward of South Beach, Fla. The photographs, negatives and slides pay special attention to the South Miami Beach Art Deco District, in particular, the exteriors of buildings, hotels, businesses, and street scenes. While the collection also includes typical beach images of the sea, sand and sunbathers, these are not the focus.
Also included are a number of clippings and publications that show a sampling of Bob Edelson's Art Deco photography in print.
