Scope and Content

Booklet containing a brief history of the Crawford House, as well as a complete list of items being sold at the 1976 auction. After a long history as an inn, the Crawford House closed its doors in 1975. Its contents were sold at auction in 1976, and the hotel burned in 1977; the exact cause of the fire was never determined. Today, the Appalachian Mountain Club’s Highland Center sits on the grounds of the former inn and hotel. Within the catalog are some handwritten notes indicating how much certain items were sold for. Auction conducted by M. D. Straw, Jr. & Emory Sanders, auctioneers & appraisers, of Seabrook, NH.
