Description

Black-and-White photograph of a view looking east on Main Street from the intersection with Broadway. The road is covered in snow, and the buildings are decorated with evergreen trees and boughs, likely for Winter Carnival. Crowds of people line the streets around horse-drawn sleighs. The Berkeley House, Methodist Church, and the first Saranac Lake High School can be seen, with Mt. Baker in the distance. Mounted on tan backer board, and signed, Edward F. Startz [?].
