Date(s) Created: 1904, 1990s Date(s): 1904-1915
Notes: As received per MPP purchase. As received this image was "colorized" and not original to the image which has been seen in its original context as illustration in Davis Cook Books from the 1904 to circa early 1920s. It has only been seen printed in black-and-white and those reproductions show the entire scene. The general colors here appear to be similiar to the palette of postcards from that era.
