The Pilot coming Aboard at Sandy Hook, 1904 · colorized reinterpretation

1904

Sandy Hook pilot station off the peninsula's tip (approx)

A colorized reinterpretation of the H. C. White Company stereograph of the pilot boat New Yorker standing off Sandy Hook. The white hull of the pilot boat reads warm cream against a slate-green sea; the small transfer rowboat crosses the middle distance carrying the pilot; the receiving vessel's rigging drops into the foreground at left.

The stereograph and an AI-colorized reinterpretation

A sepia-toned stereograph card — two nearly identical black-and-white photographs side by side on a dark grey mount. Each panel shows a two-masted white pilot boat with a small pennant at her mast riding on a choppy sea at the left, a small four-oared rowboat crossing the middle distance carrying the pilot, and the ropes of a receiving vessel dropping into the near left corner. Captions on the mount read "The PERFEC-STEREOGRAPH", "H. C. WHITE CO., Genl. Office N. Bennington, Vt., U.S.A.", and "7700 The Pilot coming Aboard at Sandy Hook from Pilot Boat 'New Yorker', New York Harbor. COPYRIGHT 1904 BY H. C. WHITE CO."
