Throwback Thursday: 1937

From the Schroon Laker Collection

The year was 1937, the sun is shining and bathers of all shapes and sizes are taking advantage of some classic Schroon Lake Weather.

We recently picked up this original photograph, which comes from the "State of New York Conservation Department Bureau of State Publicity, Albany New York".

There are men, women and children on the beach and and to the far right of frame, what appears to be a wooden diving station of sorts. Some of the men have there bathing tops town -- that's right -- the style of swim suits for men in the 1930s had tops.

We are not to sure where the photo is taken from. If you have any clues, share them with us in comments.
