About the Photos
Our holdings include hundreds of glass and film negatives/transparencies that we've scanned ourselves; in addition, many other photos on this site were extracted from reference images (high-resolution tiffs) in the Library of Congress research archive. (To query the database click here.) They are adjusted, restored and reworked by your webmaster in accordance with his aesthetic sensibilities before being downsized and turned into the jpegs you see here. All of these images (including "derivative works") are protected by copyright laws of the United States and other jurisdictions and may not be sold, reproduced or otherwise used for commercial purposes without permission.

Nicola Chiulli: 1937

My grandfather Nicola Chiulli lived in Rockaway from 1929 to 1941, when he died in Rockaway Beach Hospital. He was a gardener and lived at 129 Beach Street. The photo is from about 1937, taken by Feiner Studio in Rockaway. I never knew my grandfather; if anyone knew him or has any information about him, please contact me.
Thanks in advance and best regards. Nicola Chiulli MD, Italy.
