EDITORS COMMENTS
Mongoose, Midge, and Dipper: A Triumphant Moment at the 1898 July 4th Regatta This photograph, titled 'Mongoose, Midge, and Dipper,' was captured by renowned photographer Johns Johnston on July 4, 1898. The image portrays an exhilarating moment during a sailing regatta, held in the United States, likely near a picturesque geographical feature or body of water. In the foreground, the sailboat named 'Mongoose' skillfully maneuvers through the water, its sails billowing in the wind. The boat's crew, dressed in sailing attire, are fully engaged in the competition, their expressions a mix of concentration and excitement. The second boat, 'Midge,' can be seen in the background, slightly behind Mongoose, while a third boat, 'Dipper,' is visible in the distance, adding to the dynamic scene. The photograph is a testament to the pastime of yachting and sailing, which was a popular leisure activity during the late 19th century in the United States. The image, taken as a dry plate negative on glass 8 x 10 inches, is a valuable piece of heritage art that transports us back in time to an era of American history marked by innovation, competition, and the spirit of adventure. The photograph was taken by Johns Johnston, a prolific photographer whose work was published by Detroit Publishing Company, which was known for its high-quality reproductions of American scenes. This image, with its timeless appeal and historical significance, is a must-have for any collection focusing on the history of America, sailing, or the late 19th century.
