The coastal barrier landscape of the Delmarva Peninsula is captured here during the early 1940s, a time when Ocean City stood as a concentrated seaside settlement before mid-century expansion. The geography is defined by the complex system of back bays, including Little Assawoman Bay and Isle of Wight Bay, separated from the Atlantic Ocean by thin strips of land. On these reaches, maritime safety is anchored by the Fenwick Island Lighthouse and several Life Saving Stations, such as Fenwick Island LSS and Isle of Wight LSS.
