What Florida’s Major Cities Looked Like In The 1920s May Shock You. Miami Especially.

The Roaring Twenties was a fascinating time in history for our state and our nation. The prohibition of alcohol during an economic high coincided with a blossoming of fashion, music and culture. These photos show several cities in Florida in the 1920s during this time (a couple are dated 1930 but were too good to miss).
