The original Saranac Lake High School is visible at left, and the buildings along the intersection of Main Street and Broadway are visible in the distance. The road appears to be dirt.

Printed by the Valentine & Sons' Publishing Co., New York and Boston. The handwritten message on the back reads, "Have been here two weeks came most all way by water - nice trip. Ethel with me, but goes back tomorrow - shall miss her. These Drs. believe in the rest cure and make me stay right in bed. This is just a little mountain village, but very pretty. Am on waiting list for San - here. All full - lots of TB. Write soon. Much love Nellie." Mailed to Mrs. H. K. Culver, Gerisco, Mich.
