History of Object: Third grade class, 1888, posed outside of what is probably the old Haight School (later Mastick) because of a grillwork architectural feature found also in the image (Acc. No. 97.400.1) identified as most likely showing Haight School students. However, in this instance, students are unidentified, as we are told only that this picture comprised part of "Miss Chappel's" collection.
