McVane, Earl Collection
Collection contains [Cliff Island footage], home movies of boats and the shore on the coast of Maine. Scenes include moving a boat from the shop to the beach with the many people pulling and pushing, speedboat races with three- and five-masted schooners anchored in the background, and a shot of a biplane in flight. The footage shows both the working people of a community as they launch a boat and the spectators at a race.
Cliff Island is located in Casco Bay in the Gulf of Maine.
