    Any information about the camera used to take this photograph? This is fascinating!

    Thank you for your question, caoseducado(away). We don't know for certain what type of camera was used. The photo archivist for the State Archives of Florida suggests that judging by the size of the negative (4" X 5") and the date of the photograph, it was most likely a Graflex Speed Graphics or possibly some sort of twin reflex camera similar to a Hasselblad that used a medium format negative.

    Hope that helps.
