Atlantic City Forever (Colorized): 1912

Yet another in my string of Atlantic City colorizations, this one taken in front of Richard's Baths. The original b&w is here. 
I went looking to see if I could find any information about the historical color of Richard's Baths.  I found a newsletter which references this very photograph, and mentions that Richard's Baths were a dark maroon color.  The purply color I came up with after much experimentation was the best I could approximate it.  
The newsletter is available as a pdf file.
This photo only took about ten hours to colorize, which means I'm getting better! View full size.
