Dated 1939, this scrapbook page reflects a Navy sailor's shore leave sightseeing in Honolulu, featuring the landmark Royal Hawaiian Hotel and the sands of Waikiki Beach alongside the palm-lined Coconut Drive and a scenic Oahu coastal road. These images capture Hawaii on the eve of the Second World War, still developing as a premier American tourist destination even as it served as a key Pacific Fleet base. Project: 218720
