1950233171950. American postwar economic growth and tourism throughout Clearwater Florida photographed by local photographer George Fulmer showing how the Sunbelt expansion operated through roadside motels downtown retail waterfront leisure automobile traffic and service businesses during the rapid growth of the 1950s. The photographs center on the commercial circulation that made Clearwater function as a visitor city spanning rate signage pitched to seasonal travelers motel courts arranged for car access beach parking filled with mid-century automobiles storefront streets where shoppers and pedestrians occupy the sidewalk and crowded dock scenes tied to marine recreation. Clearwater had developed as a resort community by the 1890s and local historical sources note that by 1957 it was known as the fastest growing city in America making this group a concentrated record of the urban and commercial expansion that turned Pinellas County's Gulf Coast into a major tourism economy. <br /> <br /> Photo archive of 72 items including 38 silver gelatin photographs and 34 negatives ranging from 3" x 4" to 4" x 5" contained in 10 photo studio envelopes. Most negatives are duplicates of the print photographs while some are unique images. Clearwater Florida c. 1950s. Repeated and variant views show commercial properties and tourist infrastructure from multiple angles including motels with bold seasonal signage reading "SUMMER RATES $5.00 PER COUPLE FROM APRIL 15 TO NOV. 15" "20 ROOMS $4.00 DOUBLE Apr. 1st-Dec. 1" and "REASONABLE RATES 4 UNITS $5.00 DOUBLE APRIS-JUN." Several prints and negatives picture motel exteriors room interiors with twin beds and lamps a modernist multi-story lodging property with projecting sign and glass-fronted office and a low roadside restaurant or motel building beneath a large fish sign. Other images move into the wider tourist economy: downtown street scenes with McCrory's and Maas Brothers Television signage a storefront reading "Clearwater's American Casuals" a Parsons Paint Co. facade a Brookside Service Travel Gas station advertising regular gasoline at 26 cents and waterfront scenes with rows of parked cars palm-lined drives crowded piers and a dock packed with men women and children waiting or disembarking. The negatives preserve the same emphasis on repeated commercial views indicating studio production for advertising promotional or business use; the group also retains photo studio envelopes inscribed by George Fulmer.<br /> <br /> These photographs place Clearwater within the broader postwar reordering of Florida's Gulf Coast where automobile ownership road travel beach recreation and commercial real estate development produced the built environment commonly identified with Sunbelt growth. Fulmer's images are strongest where they show the interdependence of businesses rather than isolated structures: lodging needed seasonal pricing and motor access downtown retail depended on pedestrian density and curbside traffic waterfront tourism required parking and dock circulation and roadside services converted through-travel into local spending. Visible edge wear light curling and routine handling marks to some prints and negatives; studio envelopes present. Overall good condition. A substantial visual record of how Clearwater's postwar visitor economy operated on the ground with concrete evidence of the businesses prices streets interiors and waterfront traffic that made tourism an urban system rather than a backdrop. unknown
