Photo Caption:
The original 1954 caption read, “On the ledge surrounding the lens room at Alcatraz Light, Keeper Edward H. Schneider looks out over the prison roof and the ocean. The 100,000-candlepower light is 214 feet above powerful, swirling currents that add to the security of the famous ‘Rock.’” (U.S. Coast Guard photo, Courtesy of Michelle Campbell Hamecs) Back to the edition of: Nov/Dec 2021
