Alcatraz Escape Beach Area Poster
View from the Sally Port Guard House, one of the oldest buildings on Alcatraz, of the general area on the northeast side of the island that three convicts went into the water during their daring escape. The buildings in the distance are the Officer Club ruins and the Power Plant smoke stack.
As depicted in Clint Eastwood's portrayal in ESCAPE from ALCATRAZ, on June 11, 1962 Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin escaped from their cells to the cell house roof. From there, they made their way down to the rocky beach (depicted in this photo) to an area near the Officer's Club and the Power Plant. They entered the water at around 10pm on a makeshift raft manufactured out of stolen raincoats and glue. They were never seen again.
Did they make it? Federal officials stated adamantly that cold water, agressive currents, and sharks made it impossible for anyone to survive the swim ashore.
However, 6 months after Morris and the Anglin brothers disappeared, convict John Paul Scott went into the 46 degree water and completed the 3 mile swim from Alcatraz Island to Fort Point beneath the Golden Gate Bridge. He was arrested there and suffered from hypothermia, but he had survived.

I was so amazed at how this all turned out. Everyone who attended the funeral was in awe of how beautiful it was made.
And I owe it all to Zazzle. I wouldn’t have done it better myself not to mention I wouldnt have time to do it.
The great part of it all was they had templates that was catered to my needs and that I could use it in ways I wanted to use to resize it my way. It took some time but I was happy it turned out great. I did 100 photos, 89, 66 photos (I think) lol templates.
The only suggestion is that the templates, before sending through would tell you of errors like; saying please revise or resize it again for any photos that is not perfectly well sitting or not show it’s cutting off some of them and where it tells you there’s duplicates.
Staring, placing and resizing all 100 + pictures into the template can be tiresome and overwhelming and it makes my eyes blurred that I can’t tell if they’re cutting off or overlapping or duplicates.
Overall I am very pleased and will be using Zazzle again should the need arises.
Thank you Zazzle.
Altogether I’ve done 3 collages 1 profile picture and couple pictures with 1 frame and yet this is my first time ordering as a 1 time customer.
Prices were very reasonable and accommodating to my finances.

Fun bright artwork that really captures the mood I’m going for! Pop art with cyberpunk energy. A little sweet but also spicy. This art is the perfect size and vibe for our art gallery wall. The printing looks great, high quality with vibrant colors! I went with the semi-gloss finish, which adds a little extra shine and thickness to the print making it excellent for high-traffic areas like the staircase wall.
