The record names a rest house for marine flyers in Miami, a setting that distinguishes this glass negative from the rest of the Bain News Service holdings. Its date is unrecorded, and the title comes from caption data the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its cards, which the Library of Congress has not verified. George Grantham Bain's agency supplied newspapers and magazines with news photographs in the early twentieth century, when aviation was new and military flying was expanding. Facilities like this one reflect the attention given to housing and caring for the men who flew in that period.
