COOLIDGE, BALDWIN (1845-1928)
Although his studio was located in Boston, Mr. Coolidge’s 1880’s series of photographs are amongst the earliest views of old Biddeford Pool. His images show the area as the hard-working fishing village that it was, in the years just before transforming into a popular summer retreat for wealthy Midwesterners. Some of his photographs appeared in the book Gleanings from the Sea by Joseph W. Smith. Coolidge’s collections are held by Historic New England. McArthur Library has original copies of most of his Biddeford Pool photographs.
