DescriptionNewspaper clipping from the The North Shore Times titled 'All Smiles at Success of Show' dated Wednesday 16 June, 1972. Handwritten in blue ink below photograph reads 'This is not the portrait of a conference man or a smug politician. It is of course that social lion and well known man about town host. Jack Lewitz'. SignificanceThe Lewitz collection illustrates the boom era of power boating. The increasing affordability and widespread use of cars, and comparative affordability and availability of powerboats in the era following WWII made the sport a popular pastime on the flatwater surfaces of rivers and lakes.
