Description

The source photograph (see link below) includes the distinctive rounded eaves of the home that still stands at 16 Magnolia Avenue in Manchester, just north Overledge Road on the way to the site of the old Magnolia train station. Gone is the wooden elevated sidewalk and the period streetlamp at the curve in the road ahead. Strangely, the colorist has greatly enhanced the visibility of the utility poles and electrical wires, which are scarcely noticeable in the original photograph -- a reversal of the usual practice of erasing them.
