A. L. [Arthur A.] Gilley's barber shop is on the left - a small building which forms but a fraction of the structure. It is possible that, at the time this photograph was taken, Maurice Marshall was renting the barber shop. The gasoline pumps shown on the right are in what is now the Post Office parking lot. The bandstand can just be seen across Main Street in the back of the photograph. The automobile is definitely c. 1925-1926 - very possibly a 1925 Maxwell 5 Passenger Sedan. To read about the Maxwell Motor Car Company - See “Maxwell Motor and the Making of the Chrysler Corporation” by Anthony J. Yanik, published by Wayne State University Press, 2009.

This postcard photograph is valuable to historians interested in Manset, Maine. The image shown here has, therefore, been cleaned for study. The original postcard, untouched, remains in the collection, as do all other images, in its original, scanned version. When archivists enlarged the photograph for study they could see that the original photograph had been altered before printing to blank out the sky. The area above the horizon was removed.

The front of the postcard is titled Harbor View, Southwest Harbor and shows a view of Deacon's Cove at low tide. Black's Ledge is in the foreground and Deacon's Cove is left of center. The photograph was taken from the western point of Clark or Deacon's Cove, Southwest Harbor, Maine. The ledge is an extension of the point. "Clark's" or "Deacon's Cove" which refers to Deacon Henry Higgins Clark (1811-1897), a patriarch of Southwest Harbor. The postcard was written by Annie Matilda (Crozier) Rand - Mrs. Edward Lothrop Rand, staying at the Seaside Inn at Seal Harbor to one year old Hollis Theodore Greenleaf in North Edgecomb, Maine. Annie has just left her brother-in-law Henry L. Rand's house, "Fox Dens," in Southwest Harbor. The back of the postcard reads: "Dear Hollis, This is a picture of the harbor where I stayed for a week before coming here. But you cannot see where "Fox Dens" is. That is what the place is called where I stayed before coming here. The land is covered with trees and right in among the rocks near the shore is built a bungalow. You would love to lie in your carriage on the piazza & look over the water. But you live in a very beautiful place. My kind rembrances to your mother & all. Love from A.M. Rand" The back of the postcard was originally SWHPL 8482, but has been combined with this item.
