General Note:
The beach behind the Boynton Beach Casino, with palm trees and people. Postmarked 1948. Historical note: The Casino was built in 1928 and designed by architects King and Campbell, replacing a simpler bathing house there from at least 1920. The Mediterranean Revival building was used as a recreational facility, hosting barbeques, dances, ceremonies and offering a restaurant. After 1939, showers and lockers were also available. The building was torn down in 1967.
