Scans of seven large-format color slides taken by Michael Macfarlan in 1955. Two (F-G) are of the Lewis Stanley boathouses on GCI. Five are of the 1,000 lb. Carcharodon carcharias "man-eater" shark harpooned by Capt. Lyndon "Tud" Bunker and John L. Saltonstall aboard his 32-foot cabin cruiser, Thetis, in August of 1955. According to newspaper articles (see items 1000.28.400-406), the shark rammed a hole below the waterline about three feet from the bow, forcing the Captain to land the boat on Bakers Island where Macfarlan took these photos. The shark was shot and killed by a boat coming to their rescue. The shark was identified by one of its teeth by Henry B. Bigelow of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard College in September 1955. The photographs show John Saltonstall in blue jacket and white cap with Tud Bunker (tan pants) and Dorothy Macfarlan (photographer's mother) in white with white hat on Bakers Island with the boat and the shark.
