  • Tremont, Bass Harbor, McKinley
We know the date of this photograph from the movie playing in the Neptune Theater. It was "West Point Widow," starring Anne Shirley and Richard Carlson. The store sold Texaco Gas at this time as can be seen from the Texaco star and fire hats on the pumps. One could send telegrams from here via Western Union. The automobiles parked at the side of the building were a 1939 Plymouth sedan and a 1935 Chevrolet coupe.

There are several street lamps visible in the photograph - the one on the right is different from the others. The lamp post on the left is at the corner of Clark Point Road. The building with the overhang beyond it is the Odd Fellows building. The building on the right is J.C. Ralph's Studio - Optician and Jeweler - and the Post Office. A man is standing in the door of the Post Office and a man standing in front of Ralph's Studio. The photograph was taken soon after John Ralph moved his store and expanded it. “In 1897, the different societies in the village combined to raise funds for street lights. The lamps were bought and placed near those houses whose owners were willing to furnish the kerosene and keep the lamps trimmed and lighted. These lamps did duty until the installation of electricity in the summer of 1917.” - “Traditions and Records of Southwest Harbor and Somesville, Mount Desert Island, Maine” by Mrs. Seth S.
