The Stanley House is visible in the background. The women on the street are shown with shirtwaists and long skirts. "Before the days of summer boarders, Manset, shown here, was the hub of Southwest Harbor. The only post office south of Somesville lay in this corridor, along with the customs house and shipbuilding and fishing operations… Seen here is William Ward's house, right, overlooking his wharf on the shroe, which housed his store and bowling alley. The adjacent wharf is where John L. Stanley operated his ice and fisheries businesses, and Lewis Newman's meat market lies further at the left." - Mount Desert Island - Somesville, Southwest Harbor, and Northeast Harbor by Earle G.
