Page 90 contains a postcard photograph, in color, with the following inscription: "Wissahickon Inn, Fairmount Park, Phila., Pa.". The photograph was taken from a little distance and from the right showing the entire façade of the Wissahickon Inn. The building is of three stories and has an elongated "porte cochere" which extends outward from the main entrance. The entire first floor encloses a covered porch supported by columns and a railing. The third floor contains many peaked gable dormer windows and two turrets on either side of the building. A wide unpaved road leads past the side of the Inn as well as in front of the Inn. Lawns can be seen in front of the Inn as well as off to the sides.Collection
