Description |
Stereoview card. Photo taken from the west side of the Fourth NH Turnpike looking east at the Church Family Trustee's Office and the Great Stone Dwelling. Standing in front of the Trustee's Office is a buggy with a team of two white horses. There are at least two passengers in the buggy, but they are indistinct because of the shadow from the buggy's canopy. In the C.E. Lewis numbered stereoview series, this image is #11. The card has rounded corners and orange paper on the front. The images have shallow arches on the top edges, and are straight on the remaining three sides. On the back a list of the images is glued to the card which reads "Photographic Views, / Shaker Village, / Enfield, N.H." then a list of the 19 views in the series and "C.E. Lewis, Photographer, / Lebanon, N.H." at the bottom. The back of the card is a pinkish color. In blue pen at the bottom in Robert Leavitt's handwriting is written "Leavitt Collection." |
