A photograph of the MORRO CASTLE wreck printed on a card with an embossed border. The photo was taken from the north end of the beach, with a view of the bow and of the crowds gathered on the beach and breakwater looking at it. The deck is still smoking or steaming, so this was probably taken on September 8 or 9, 1934 but may have been sold later as a souvenir of the event. The back of the card is blank.
