This photograph shows a caddie and a golfer at Miami Beach, Florida, a pairing that points to the resort courses that drew winter visitors to the area. Miami Beach grew into a fashionable destination in the 1920s, when developers laid out hotels, clubs, and golf courses along the barrier island. Caddies carried clubs, read greens, and gave advice, and they were a familiar part of the game at such places. The record dates the picture only to between 1930 and 1952, and its caption information is unverified, so the exact course and day remain open. The image is part of the Wittemann Collection in the Library of Congress.
