Signed: Edwin Levick For more than thirty years Mr. Levick had been a professional photographer. He was one of the first to take pictures of events and objects of news value and to supply them to newspapers a…nd magazines. In this field of photography he was recognized as a leader throughout the United States. Edwin Levick (1869-1929) was the most renowned maritime photographer of the first half of the 20th century. He was born in England and immigrated to the United States in 1899. He started a photography business, supplying photographs to many of the leading newspapers of the day. Soon he developed the specialty of maritime photography, but continued to do so called spot news photography. He lived in New Rochelle, New York, for the last 15 years of his life. His obituary in the New York Times credited him as being "one of the first to take pictures of events and objects of news value and to supply them to newspapers and magazines. In this field of photography he was recognized as a leader throughout the United States." Levick's company continued with the same photography specialties for about a decade thereafter. The Mariner's Museum, Newport News, Virginia, and the New-York Historical Society have substantial numbers of his photographs in their collections. The latter has over 200 of Levick's large format film negatives.
