Hawaiian Islands-Scrapbook of Vintage Photography from 1937 #Hawaii #PearlHarbor #History
Updated: Dec 7, 2019
I found this scrapbook among the stack of things I have from my grandmothers' things. It looks like something that was purchased as a souvenir. I thought I would post the pictures to share with the public because they somehow seem historical, dating back to 1937, just four short years before the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. This is the first of a series to post. The little book is still in very good condition and a special find. Enjoy.
Picture No. 1
Fort Street Honolulu
Looking online for a current picture from this view but it seems the street is now closed down and has been renamed Fort Street Mall for tourist shopping. The Aloha Tower in the background is a lighthouse that stands at the end of downtown Honolulu and has been in operation since 1926.
